The getc and putc man page synopsis look identical to the ones at https://man.cat-v.org/unix-6th/3/ Section VI differs from https://man.cat-v.org/unix-6th/6/ Mine has (in addition to those in v6) agen -- generates associative memory drivers hyphen -- find hyphenated words lex -- generate programs for simple lexical analysis ptx -- permuted index tmac -- -ms macros which is ms(vii) in v6 And from v6 is missing: azel col graph m6 plot quiz sky speak spline tbl tmg Compared to the v7 lex, the one command line argument is "-code", equivalent to a first input line of "%-code" which changes the output prefix from "yy" to "code". Compared to v6, Section I is missing: eqn, lpr, man, neqn, newgrp, opr, rc, rev, roff, spell, tee, troff. But has: lc (LIL compiler) mtm (magnetic tape manipulation), onintr (specify interrupt handling for a command file) read/open/onend (sequential file read) req (rewind tape) sum (sum file) The one man page I compared is yacc(I) which is missing the '-r' (ratfor) option present in v6 The manual is typeset, and the inside of the cover page days "This manual was set by a Grahpic Systems phototypesetter driven by the troff formatting program under the UNIX system. The text of the manual was prepared using the ed text editor" No sign of new archive format. I have only the manual pages, so I can't speak to the state of C.
