I am working on a history of Usenet as my PhD dissertation in
Communication. In my archives of old news, I frequently run across
references to Unix utilites and need to understand how those
utilities work. I don't have access to either BSD or AT&T manuals
any more (all accounts are on either Sun or HP machines) and I find
that their manuals don't always have the information I need in
them.
If you have a set of old Unix manuals sitting someplace gathering
dust and would like to donate them to a worthy cause, I'll come
pick them up or pay shipping from there to here (assuming you're
not reading this in Europe :-).
Thanks,
