The origin of this document is the Unix Programmer's Manual for the Version 7 release (1979). The manual was published in two volumes: volume 1 was a compilation of all the man pages, and volume 2 was a compilation of whitepapers (all, or nearly all, composed using the "ms" macro package). "UNIX for Beginners--Second Edition" appeared early in volume 2. (AT&T lawyers insisted on the full capitalization, but several Murray Hill Bell Labs veterans have gone on record as preferring "Unix" to be spelled in mixed case as an ordinary proper noun.) Some copies of this document on the Internet have been re-typeset, and some of them have misleading dates due to a technical detail of ms(7) usage. The date on the copy that was typeset for the published manual is "October 2, 1978". Regards, Branden
