    This is the source for grep. It's again only 1 file, and tiny. Only uses simple calls, etc. https://github.com/v7unix/v7unix/blob/master/v7/usr/src/cmd/grep.c

    This takes me back in time, to c. 1982 when I got curious about how computers calculated trig functions. Luckily I was using one of the first OSS systems (modulo AT&T lawyers): Unix V7. So I pulled up the source and took a look. You can still see it here: https://github.com/v7unix/v7unix/blob/master/v7/usr/src/libm...
  • There Is No 'Printf'

    It's what historic Unix did: https://github.com/v7unix/v7unix/blob/master/v7/usr/src/libc...

    Why it did that? I'm not sure, but at the time C did not have 'void' functions: every function returned a value. They probably wanted to make the behavior of the stdlib functions deterministic, even if the return value was useless and undocumented.
