## About
pdp7-unix is a project to resurrect Unix on the PDP-7 from scans of the original assembly
code done by [Norman Wilson](http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~norman/pers/index.html). The scans of PDP-7 Unix are in the [Unix Archive](http://www.tuhs.org/) at

## Current Status
Update early March 2016: We've written an assembler, most of a user-mode
simulator and commented several source files. We now have these utilities
running: cat, cp, chmod, chown, chrm and ls.
