I’ve updated my nvi cheatsheet with practical examples for startup commands (-c) and classic vi ↔ Unix workflows (!, %!).

The page is a living document, and the RSS feed now tracks updates properly.

For all my #unix #sysadmin and computer history nerds: “52 years later, only known copy of Unix v4 recovered from randomly found tape, now up and running on a system — first OS version with kernel and core utilities written in C”

While cleaning a storage room, our staff found this tape containing #UNIX v4 from Bell Labs, circa 1973

Apparently no other complete copies are known to exist: https://gunkies.org/wiki/UNIX_Fourth_Edition

We have arranged to deliver it to the Computer History Museum
