Not in a standard V7.  Various places wrote their own, and PWB had fsdb,
but V7 itself didn't come with anything along those lines except clri.
At least, not the V7 distribution we got.  (The V7 distribution did not
remain absolutely invariant over the years; this might have been a late
addition, as our V7 tape was definitely an early one.)
