Johnny,

As is my usual motive for dabbling in unfamiliar waters, I'm reading a 
book, "Advanced Unix Programming" by Marc J. Rochkind, written in 1985. 
It is written from a System V/System III/Xenix 3 and to a lesser extent 
BSD 4.2/Version 7 perspective and I was looking around for one of these 
environments to get a dev environment working that would map to what I 
was reading that wasn't Version 7 and that would work well in a 
simulator. In the process of looking, I found Quasijaurus and it seemed 
it might serve this and other purposes. I also found a version of PC/IX 
that runs ok in CGA mode on my mac that might work. I think it's 
basically a System V variant. Do you think there's a better match?

Thanks,

Will
