The consensus of replies to my inquiry (idis.119) of
whether the refer program is in System III was no.

In a previous article (sri-unix.1640), Charley Kline
indicated that there are restrictions on writes to pipes.
I have heard that the terminal driver is horrible.
Mark Kampe's talk scheduled for the Boston meeting
is titled "Everything you wanted to know about system III*
but Bell was afraid to tell you".

What else is wrong with system III?
Maybe Mark can give us a preview.
