Also, now that we speak about these things...  I've always wondered
what happened to learn(1).  It's a program mentioned[1] in UNIX for
Beginners [2nd ed.; K.], that doesn't seem to exist anymore (on Debian
at least). Does it still exist anywhere?  I'd like to see it, if
someone knows of it.

Again I would recommend the TUHS mailing to you.  I briefly searched its
list archives for this topic but didn't come up with anything.

Josh sent me the following offlist:

Here’s link to the ‘learn’ source code from Brian’s web page:
https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~bwk/btl.mirror/learn.tar.gz

There’s also a paper in there (in learn.ms) called “LEARN - Computer-Aided Instruction on UNIX”.

Branden

Cheers,
