Not to say I won't eventually be scanning the physical pages, but that= seems like a quicker way to get stuff available for study. Given that, I'm scanning the System V stuff because there's a much less cle= ar path to producing typesetter sources there, and truth be told there's a = lot more interesting information in these docs. So without further ado, here's a second document from that set, the "Transi= tion Aids" containing five papers: System III to System V transitional chan= ges, 512 byte to 1K block filesystem transitions, changes to the UNIX ar fo= rmat, an expository paper on COFF (Common Object File Format), and finally = changes to the C language in this update. The COFF document is the longest= , offers a full exposition, but the rest are just notes on what has changed= between versions: https://archive.org/details/unix-system-transition-aids-= system-v Additionally, as I kinda just dropped it buried in another thread, I also s= canned this one the past few days, the System Release Description: https://= archive.org/details/unix-system-release-description-system-v/ Where the Transition Aids concerns the most essential information for a Sys= tem III user to assess a System V migration, the System Release Description= is much more holistic and contains one very exciting document (for me at l= east), Appendix I, a list of modification requests completed in the upgrade= , in other words, a development log of every commit between System III and = System V (allegedly). Finally, looks like archive.org opted to OCR this fo= r me, and the bits I've snipped and checked actually look accurate, so hope= fully as I continue to do this, I continue to get quality OCR from archive.= org for free. - Matt G. ------- Original Message ------- On Thursday, December 15th, 2022 at 10:09 PM, segaloco via TUHS wrote: > Good evening folks.
