   Yes, but then he might as well just install the real wget and use the
original script. The whole point of BusyBox is to avoid installing tonnes of
stuff.

   Anyway, it seems that we can rewrite the original script using the real
wget such that it doesn't need awk and xargs:

$ (cd /usr/local/share/maptiles/tile.openstreetmap.org && \
find -size 0c -print | cut -c3- | \
wget -p -i - -B http://tile.openstreetmap.org/ -x -nH -U Firefox)

   Who wants to add support for ETag, If-None-Match: and extended attributes
to wget?
