.UX
.ul
Programmer's Manual.
The documents here are grouped roughly into
the areas of
basics,
editing,
language tools,
document preparation,
and
system maintenance.
Further general information may be found in
the Bell System Technical Journal
special issue on
.UX ,
July-August, 1978.
.PP
Many of the documents cited within this volume as
Bell Laboratories internal memoranda
or Computing Science Technical Reports
(CSTR) are also contained here.
.PP
These documents contain occasional localisms,
typically references to other operating systems
like
GCOS
and
IBM.
In all cases, such references may be safely ignored
by
UNIX
users.
