The list includes all potential busybox commands (executables, programs) 
but the busybox in BL3 was compiled to include only a select list of 
these.  I posted a later busybox with a few more added (vi, modprobe, 
ftpget, etc.).  If you type busybox is should list the actual included 
ones.  ls --help for instance gives you a very short and probably 
unintelligble list of how to use ls.  Look online for man pages for each 
executable.  Or get a linux CD and look at the info or man pages on that. 
Or look in a book about linux, which often has an alphabetical list of 
commands.  Or at a site for linux newbies.  Often they list the equivalent 
linux and DOS commands:  ls/dir  rm/del cp/copy mv/rename
