>Description:
the manpage for the ``ls'' command states:
"HISTORY
An ls utility first appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX."
However, the version of UNIX V5 available from
gatekeeper.dec.com:/pub/DEC/sim/software/uv5swre.tar.Z
(UNIX Version 5) contains the command ``/bin/ls'' which is in
operation the same as UNIX V7 ``ls'', and therefore this infomation
in incorrect.
