There have been case study courses here and there over

would argue that Lyons’s book of sources was the text for one. An old
crony, Ed Smith, used to teach a comparative programming languages
course back in the day. And I know someone at NYU taught a course where
people studied the source code of a variety of utilities.
In the late 70s or early 80s there was an OS class at UC Santa Barbara
taught by John Bruno that used the Lions books of V6 Unix sources and
commentary. He had to go through some kind of special efforts to
get the books.
