It mostly {\em excludes\/} networks and network programming, which are treated in a separate bibliography, \path|internet.bib|. This bibliography was started from material in postings to the {\tt sunflash} list, volume 46, number 17, October 1992, and volume 57, number 29, September 1993, by Samuel Ko (e-mail: \path|kko@fraser.sfu.ca|), and then significantly extended by the present author. Entry commentaries are largely due to S.~Ko. \end{abstract} \raggedright % looks better this way, since long list % of citation keys don't linebreak well \section*{General UNIX texts} \cite{%
