3. I'd like manpages (figure they might help with the above), but they're on the tape as .u files?

No clue there. Are the .u files nroff by chance?

I figured out the manpages. Just need to copy the tmac files from 2bsd into /usr/lib, then copy the *.u files into /usr/man/manu, then:

man vi
VI(UCB)             UNIX Programmer's Manual              VI(UCB)

     vi - screen oriented (visual) display editor based on ex

Printed 1/1/70               4/4/79                             2

The .u suffix was another duh moment. .u for UCB...
