>> As Rich points out, the comp.source.unix version may be a later Cornell
version, but I am fairly sure that the original was developed in Cory Hall,
I believe on Ing70, although it may have been the Cory Hall 11/70. I
remember finding bugs in it when we ran it on the Teklabs 11/70, which was
definitely a heavily hacked V7-based system with much of 2BSD and other UCB
tools added to it.

The point is while Vaxen had been released, we did not have one at
Tektronix at the time, and I got a lot of V7-based tools from folks in Cory
Hall.
