hi folks,
I was trying busybox 1.00pre10 recently, moving from 0.60 in the hope that it 
will be more bug-fixed and improved. I had earlier found that tab and username 
completion didn't work with lash on 0.60 (are these meant for lash too??) The 
configuration help doesn't clearly indicate things even in 1.00pre10 . Here is a 
snapshot of menuconfig screen.

There is no option for bourne shell (only ash/hush/lash/msh/none) on menu, but 
"---  Bourne Shell Options" below causes some confusion.

If it could either be organised that options relevant to selected shell(s) only 
are enabled
and/or
atleast in the <Help> for these options, shells can be mentioned for which the 
option is available.

  ---   Bourne Shell Options
