with my pedantic head on…

The “7th Edition” was the name of the Perkin Elmer port (nee Interdata), derived from Richard Miller’s work.

This was Unix Version 7 from the labs, with a v6 C compiler, with vi, csh, and curses from 2.4BSD (though we where never 100% sure about this version).

You never forget your first Unix :-)
