This matches my memory.  BTW: 1975 it was in day-to-day lingo in the
ARPANET community, such as I was in at CMU, so I suspect it was from much
earlier, such as the Multics reference.  At some point - which looks like
early 1977, someone added it to the Jargon file, but it was hardly a
new term by then.
