To forestall those who haven't looked: the good news is that the papers from Volume 2 of the manual were included in /usr/doc on the V7 tape; the bad news is that the C Reference Manual was omitted. Here is /usr/doc/cman in its entirety: Sorry, but for copyright reasons, the source for the C Reference Manual is not distributed. Presumably the problem was that the Reference Manual was published as part of the a real book in 1978. I forget just what Tony was after in the first place, but maybe some of the stuff on Dennis Ritchie's home page will help: http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/who/dmr/index.html In particular the Sixth Edtion version of the C Reference Manual is there.
