It is unlikely to have anything > for the MC68000 Blit, only stuff for the Mac-32 Jerq. The V8 tape has the Blit stuff in /usr/blit, and the 5620 stuff in /usr/jerq. The Blit stuff looks somewhat older, and doesn't have exactly the same graphics library functions as the 5620. It would be interesting to see a chronology of the evolution of these window systems.

That's amusing, considering that the 5620 stuff was in /usr/jerq on Research systems! Apparently the accident became institutionalized. Mike
