BusyBox is a multiuse-utility, designed for embedded Linux-systems.

It can provide most of the functionality of the many programs typical found in /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, all in a single binary, thus saving space on small systems.

For example, BusyBox is used in Tiny Core Linux.

BusyBox can be compiled to include an AWK-implementation.
