The last one I recall being so released was UNIX V7. - "SVR3 is *very primitive*." Naaah. It's almost *modern*. UNIX V5 is primitive, and OS/8 for the PDP-8 is *very primitive*. "Modern" would be 4.3BSD or newer. :) - "Don't even expect man pages." That must be a matter of packaging. The famous "ancient Unix V6" PDP-11 distribution contains man pages. - "...you have to type the pound / hash symbol (#). Really." That must be a default stty setting issue. I used 3B1s briefly back in the day, and I don't recall any gymnastics required to delete a character. (I have a dead 3B1 mainboard nailed to the wall. I call it a 3B0. ;) )
