[PATCH] ascii.7: chase down History to earliest

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Cf., well, the UNIX Programmer's Manual:
  https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Distributions/Research/Dennis_v1/UNIX_ProgrammersManual_Nov71.pdf
PDF page 191; yes, the typographical convention here is insane, and
the contemprary-correct way to refer to this page from within the manual
would be /just/ "/etc/ascii", but, given the context, "/etc/ascii (VII)"
makes the most sense to me
