But if I don't get pip, stat, ddt, ed and submit, then its NOT a complete CP/M. Its perfectly reasonable to unbundle and sell Unix in pieces. But it better be advertized as such. The literature for many of the Unix implementations for micros that I have seen includes a list of what utilities are included. The lists didn't include all the utilities that I would like to see in Unix, but the lists made it very clear on what was and what was not there. I ask for no more than this.
