Systemless Magisk module to install (additional) ToyBox applets, using ARMv7 or higher binaries from: https://github.com/landley/toybox
Supported: ARMv7 and higher, all Android versions
Ussually, ToyBox comes preinstalled to /system/bin, but with limited number of applets.
The module installes additional toybox-ext binary, with the additional applets (UNIX/Linux command-line utilities).
Install the module and reboot. Use Terminal Emulator - Toybox applets are for Terminal and shell scripts.
Make sure that /system/bin and/or /system/xbin (the latter might not be available on some devices) are in the PATH.
Check e.g. with (all commands are case sensitive):
su
echo $PATH
Check if toybox-ext was properly installed and is it installed to /system/xbin or /system/bin:
toybox-ext --help
which toybox-ext
If the responded toybox-ext path was /system/xbin then check:
ls -l /system/xbin | grep toybox-ext
whereas if the toybox-ext path was /system/bin then use:
ls -l /system/bin | grep toybox-ext
The command will show all toybox-ext applets as installed (symlinked to the toybox-ext binary).
Usually, w will be one of them, hence you can try:
w
Note 1: Some applets are common to BusyBox and ToyBox, e.g. ascii.
Hence, if you have also the busybox installed, toybox-ext will symlink less number of (additional) applets.
Note 2: Since ToyBox-Ext v1.0.2, the module also looks if there are not-symlinked applets available from the pre-installed toybox binary (ROMs usually come with the pre-installed ToyBox but with smaller or an older binary and with a less number of applets).
For me, the additionally found applets from the pre-installed ToyBox were e.g. getfattr and iotop.
