the crypt(1) implementation and testing it.
I'm trying to reimplement the PDP11 version of crypt(1) in C. Given that
until ~30 minutes ago I didn't know a single thing about the PDP11 other
than "it's big, heavy, and goes in an equipment rack", it might take a
while.
I've already un-learned everything I learned about x86 assembler. Thank
$DEITY, I've been trying to purge that from my brain for YEARS.... :)
And the more of this mess I convert, the more I want to buy a PDP11 (or
build a clone) and play... 8^O
