Kirk McKusick - A Narrative History of BSD

i didnt understand it until i stumbled on the bsd supp docs that openbsd couldnt be ****** to include. i dont have the sources, but v7 vol2 is close enough: link vol2 contains fuller book like manuals and tutorials for complicated things like ed, C, filesystem, UNIX, etc. and should be your first introduction to UNIX/BSD, while the man(1) program (vol1) serves as a complementary quick reference for experienced users and for short programs that dont need much explanation. sadly V7 wont tell you about the internet because that was started by the "net" releases of 4.3-4.4BSD (see kirk mckusicks history ▶ this video ) for vi, get the PostScript.ps files for the OTHER manual from keith bostics sources (openbsd src only has troff source and no troff): link echo pkg_add ghostscript | su root tar xfz nvi-1.79.tar.gz cd nvi-1.79/docs/USD.doc (cd vi.ref; ps2pdf vi.ref.ps) (cd vi.tut; ps2pdf vi.tut.ps) the interactive vi tutorial is also great: cp /usr/src/usr.bin/vi/docs/tutorial/* ./ vi vi.beginner vi vi.advanced assuming you installed the relevant src tar: ftp -C link -r`"/SHA256.sig && ftp -C link -r`"/src.tar.gz && signify -Cp /etc/signify/openbsd-"`uname -r|tr -d .`"-base.pub -x SHA256.sig src.tar.gz && su root -c 'tar xfzCp src.tar.gz' wouldnt it be nice if installation did this and syspatch patched it and sysupgrade merged it? openbsd is also not very good at pointing you to the right manual. making them grepable was a small improvement for me. mkdir man && cd man && for n in
