I don't remember whether late Research Unix [dd] had -if, but Plan 9
certainly did.

I don't have a live 10/e system at the moment, but I have
the 10/e source tree handy. Classic parody-IBM syntax
only.
Aside: I'm curious: does anyone else have 8/e, 9/e, or
10/e running these days?

I have v8 on the VAX (SIMH) running but as it doesn't have TCP/IP it fell
into my pile of "I'll try some porting later" and never got picked back
up.
I also have v9 on a Sun in TME and now that the NME project has resurrected
and enhanced that, shall we say, very particular emulator I should fire it
back up and see what I can get running. I'd love to have v10 on a VAX but
my preliminary efforts to get v10 going from source on v8 were not very
successful; I suspect that it's just too big of a leap.
