Let ash pass the builtin command list to read_line_input to enable

nice. could this mechanism be used

would be nice if this could be enabled using some trick.
ash will pick it up and use it in the same way as bash.

when using busybox telnet to manually connect to some service like SMTP,
it doesnt change the \n it receives into an \r\n sequence before it
sends the line over the wire.
is there some workaround to make this possible ?
the gnu telnet program seems to automatically perform this transformation.

currently dumpkmap stores the keymap in the host endian format.
that makes it impossible to create portable kmaps for usage on different

however, i'm not sure if (apart from the endian differences) the kernel
keymaps differ between archs, so this may be unnecessary anyway.
