TENEX was derived from tops-10, not the other way around. Tops-20 was derived from Tenex. Unix was developed partly because they couldn't get Bell to buy them a pdp-10 to play with (read the standard early unix history article), so I believe that tops-10 predates unix significantly. -- David Dyer-Bennet, former DEC LCG employee -- David Dyer-Bennet Usenet: ...ihnp4!umn-cs!starfire!ddb Fido: sysop of fido 14/341, (612) 721-8967 Telephone: (612) 721-8800 USmail: 4242 Minnehaha Ave S Mpls, MN 55406
