[TUHS] Major update in unix.bib

[steve jenkin]

Total entries: 4297

At version 4.68, data from a recently
discovered Bell Laboratories document, 
UNIX Bibliography [Scheiderman:1980:UB] have been
merged into this file.

=============

Massive effort, so impressive.
Plus the SQLite database. Nice touch.

Matt G’s constant flow of new docs is pushing the boundaries
of ‘known docs’ back.
