I enjoyed the time I used a Unix system to edit a VMS binary.  GNU emacs
under VMS couldn't handle it.

   Since it is now common practice for manufacturers to NOT ship adb with
   their systems ("dbx does everything you need to, honest." Ha!), this
   definition may need some revision :-)

But a True Guru might still be using one of the old, original true
Unixes (Unixi?).

Is fsdb still shipped with SysV?  It was fun to play with, especially
on mounted filesystems..
