Are there any people who worked with Thuth or the language Zed out there? Any hope of getting the source for the Zed compiler or a compiler for the Eh language? Brantley

PDP-11/23 plus minicomputer

by James Falknor

To all interested, This is not meant as a advertising. The following is meant for informational purposes only. An entire PDP-11/23 system plus minicomputer is currently up for auction on E-Bay. http://cgi.ebay.com/Digital-Equipment-Corp-PDP-11-23-plus-minicomputer_W0QQ… There is a person that has requested that the disk drive and disks be dumped if that person should win. There are 2 disks marked "system" on them. As a part of The Unix Heritage Society, I believe we need to keep this system intact. I personally do not have the money to successfully bid and win. I hope somebody from The Unix Heritage Society will take up the cause and make a successful winning bid. The system in it's entirety is a part of The Unix Heritage.

IBM Xenix 1.00

by James Falknor

To all concerned, I recently came into possesion of IBM's Xenix 1.00 on 5.25 floppy disks for free. Problem is that it is missing disk 3 of 3 or the 4th disk in the set. I have the Installation disk, Disk 1 of 3, and Disk 2 of 3. Does anybody, by any chance, have the 4th disk, Disk 3 of 3 that they would be willing to share? Or, is that not allowed to be asked here? Thank you, James

Borland's C++ BuilderX, Personal Edition

by James Falknor

To all you programmers, I'm sure you're scoffing at me, but I just obtained Borland's C++ BuilderX, Person Edition. It only cost $10.00 U.S. dollars direct from Borland. I plan to teach myself how to view, modify, replace, and write/re-write Unix Operating System code. May I rely on help from TUHS expert programmers? I know I'm going to need the help. My ultimate goal is to bring Unix Version7 into the 21st century. Since 4.3BSD contributed code into Unix Version8, I feel I will probably use portions of the latest BSD sources that are legally available. Again, if I may use those of you that programmers help, I would surely appreciate it alot. Thank you, James Falknor

As I said I can build everything(using V7 make,cc ans as), it means I can work, and I do not need ANSI terminal (if You have meant true VT100 terminal, and not TERM=vt100 on PC, BTW apout for version 7 assumes as default TERM=vt100 ). I was meaning building in pdp environment running in Coherent, and not building in Coherent via for example a crosscompiler or so.

I have already tested succesfully more_v7 , which I obtained from Tim. Thanks. I will let You know how it works. Andrzej

Re: [TUHS] Borland's C++ BuilderX, Personal Edition

by James Falknor

Thanks to all, This project is, indeed, for my own educational purposes. I have always been "all idea, no action" type of person. It's time for me to act on my ideas. I have started by comparing the differences between Unix V7, 32V, Coherent, and NetBSD code base. I wish to preserve as much of Unix V7 as possible. Unix V7 was not without code contributed by others, namely Universities around the world. I don't know the legal logistics, but I don't see any reason to change the name from Unix V7 to anything else. As I begin to make run time progress on this project, I will keep everybody notified. I will also be posting questions as they arise. Thank you, James Falknor (I know I'm not alone with a World of Programmers on this mailing list)
