Eric Shienbrood originally wrote more(1) at UCB
Amusing result of ambiguity. I had written
PWB did make SCCS. I believe it also originated cico,
find and eval. Probably more, too, but I can't reliably
separate PWB's other contributions from USG's.
The intended meaning was, "Probably more things, too",
things like "cut" and "paste", whose exact provenance
I can't recall. And I got 2 out of 3 wrong in the list
"cico, find and eval", which should have been "cpio,
find and expr".
Less(1) would show up a few years later and replace
[page and more].
And to set a world benchmark for software bloat. For a good time try
less --help | wc
