Introduction to UNIX
When researching text to speech, I attempted to obtain a copy of a program done by Doug McIlroy at Bell Labs Murray Hill. In talking with him on the phone, he said "Sure, send a check for $20,000". Shocked, I asked why, "Comes with a PDP-11 operating system, which lets you compile and run it". Turned out never used the program, but did end up using UNIX and C extensively. |
