Just to clarify something that my collegue Jym Dyer said in a
recent posting -- there are about two dozen "Unix tools" included
in the Decus C distribution (Decus 11-SP-18), including sort,
grep, and lex.

These were not ported from Unix, but were implemented from
scratch using Unix documentation and Bell Labs technical
memoranda as references.
