[TUHS] Ongoing UNIX Manual Scans

[segaloco via TUHS]

Hello, starting a new thread for a new round of UNIX manual scans I'm
going to be working up over the next few months.  To start it all off,
here is the cover and introductory pages from the December, 1983 manual
UNIX System V Release 2.0 Programmer Reference Manual, known on-line as
"p_man".

Currently this is just the "man0" bits, so getting started, TOC, ptx,
and the binder cover.  I intend to scan the other sections and add them
to this same archive.org listing.  For now I did want to share this bit
since the permuted index in particular lists all the non-administrative
sections, giving folks an idea of what is in both the user and
programmer-level manuals.  I happen to have both BTL editions for SVR2
so will be scanning both.  Unfortunately I do not have the corresponding
System Administrator's Manual, although I do have the same for SVR1,
likewise BTL internal, so that I'll be moving into after the SVR2 stuff.

Anywho, if you spot anything in this permuted index that you want any
info on before I post more pages, let me know and I can prioritize those
bits.  All in all this is roughly what I intend to scan:

- SVR2 BTL User's Reference Manual
- SVR2 BTL Programmer Reference Manual
- Release 5.0 BTL User's Reference Manual
- Release 5.0 BTL System Administrator's Reference Manual
- Release 4.0 User's Reference Manual
- Release 5.0 3B5 User's Reference Manual

It's a lot so won't happen super duper fast, but that should greatly
expand the archived early 80's manuals.  Even better that they're
varying degrees of branched off from the commercially released PWB
descendants released at that time.  Anywho, I'll keep at it, I'll update
once the rest of the PRM is up, and will go from there.

P.S. As always, if you have similarly long lost UNIX manuals, especially
AT&T stuff, I'm happy to arrange scanning operations.  I recently
revamped my process to achieve both higher scan quality and smaller
file sizes, so feeling better lately about generating reams of scans.
