[Solved] how to find active X11 session's user and display?

Hi GNUser
It's possible only the commands used in the Tinycore scripts were included.

If all compiled busybox applets are included in the aliases file, then the file will be larger but more generally useful. This code snippet generates a complete aliases file:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh

for applet in $(busybox --list); do echo "$applet() {
    busybox $applet \"\$@\"
}
" >> busybox-aliases; done

for applet in $(busybox.suid --list); do echo "$applet() {
    busybox.suid $applet \"\$@\"
}
" >> busybox-aliases; done

We just have to delete the first two aliases because  [  and  [[  are not valid function names.

I'll submit a pull request on GitHub.

Hi GNUser
You might want to wait for Juanito and curaga to weigh in on this. There may be a reason some aliases were left out
that I'm not aware of.

From curaga: "It's not about using busybox everywhere, only where the commands may differ."

So I guess the plan going forward is to update the aliases file only when we find commands like  ps  that need to be included.

Hi, GNUser!

What's Your guess, is aliasing of all the busybox applets equivalent to PATH reordering? Not proposing, just asking.

[GNUser]

Hi, jazzbiker. That's a great point. Yes, I think that would be a nice way of achieving the same result. Something like this would work:

Code: [Select]

export PATH="/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:$PATH"The four prioritized directories would appear twice in the PATH but that wouldn't cause any problems.
