I think it's no longer worth > worrying about pre-ANSI implementations, except for amusement (e.g., > running V7 on a PDP-11 simulator). weird, i re-wrote ps(1) for 32V [vax] and V7 [pdp-11] and with a few ifdefs the code was pretty much the same. it even dealt with _lnodes_, which is specific to one site. it really wasn't that hard. finding the pages (the segment was trivial) for the stack was a bit interesting so you could print the args but infinitely better than that pus they put into SysVile. u.u_comm i can cope with, but that other crap ...
