Hi all, I've just received a set of MP3
recordings from Bob Kridle. He says:
These are recordings of Ken Thompson doing a read through of one of
an early UNIX kernel code listing with a group of grad students at
UC Berkeley while he was a visiting prof. there.
The date is roughly 1975. I've put the recordings here along with his
e-mails about the recordings:

Eric Allman has kindly supplied a scan of the source code that ken
provided for the walkthrough. I've added it to the above location.
It's interesting in that there are comments at the start of each
function - the existing 5th Edition code that we have does not
have these comments.
Cheers & thanks Eric!
