Title: dc
Post by: florian on July 05, 2009, 08:32:41 AM

I'm using microcore 2.1. I have noticed that dc is no longer present as an applet in busybox.

Yet there is still a dangling symlink from /usr/bin/dc to busybox.

I saw there is a a gnu bc and dc extension that can be used instead. Still I vote for having dc in busybox. The reason is because busybox dc can be used to provide number arithmetic to shell scripts, a quite basic functionality as I see it.

Thanks! Fixed in next release, 2.2rc1, currently still in development.
