[BusyBox] looping in the shell?

Martin,
    Currently the developers working on the BusyBox project are also working
on a shell called hush.  A few weeks ago I had pasted wondering if
FOR...DO...DONE support was broken, or not included yet.  The answer was not
included yet.  They are working on it, though,but as we all know, writing a
shell is a bit difficult.  Anyway, as Tom said, you can use ash with ile if
command history is important to you, or if you have lots of room to spare,
just use bash.  Anyway, that's my $.02.  Good luck!

First, might I say great job with busybox.  What an excellent
program....


However, I'm wondering if there is any version that includes slightly
more usable shell?
Specifically I require the "for" loop in the shell.
