That's sparse, even by V6 standards when we got our start! cc(1) is only one page, and sh(1) only 3. Oh, and the permuted index - I remember it well. Love the hand-written notes on chmod(1).

Worth having a look:

chmod (page 39) - Yeah, octal modes are a pain!... dc (page 49) - What, no bc?... Nah, learn RPN, ya wimp! diff (page 52) - "Jackpot!"?... Yup, I've seen it for myself. goto (page 67) - Now you know the origin of the ':' command. if (page 69) - Primitive flow control, pre-csh/Bourne shells. shift (page 104) - Example of a shell script using the above. tee (page 113) - "pipe fitting",... Yup, very descriptive.

Ah, the good ol' days... Gilbert
