  • Old Unix cross-reference tool
    Hyper-linked and cross referenced rendition of the sources, much like doxygen or lxr does it. The desired features were:

    cover boot, kernel, networking, library and user level code
    cover C, assembler and other relevant languages with syntax highlighting
    provide 'what is used where' information, over the whole system
    provide hyperlinks for a fast code path analysis, especially across the user,library,kernel interfaces
    support to follow the execution logic of a system call starting from user code, through the library layer, through the kernel interface, to the kernel code by just following hyperlinks.

  • Welcome to the Software Heritage archive
    The long term goal of the Software Heritage initiative is to collect all publicly available software in source code form together with its development history, replicate it massively to ensure its preservation, and share it with everyone who needs it. The Software Heritage archive is growing over time as we crawl new source code from software projects and development forges.

  • Practical UNIX Manuals
    So you've written a UNIX utility, library, or driver—or have started writing one—and you want to document your work in a manual. What happens next?
    Practical UNIX Manuals: mdoc is a guide for writing portable and maintainable UNIX manuals (manpages) in the mdoc language.
    Why mdoc? Formatters for the language are available by default on all modern UNIX installations and may be downloaded for non-UNIX systems. Furthermore, mdoc annotates content semantically, not presentationally, producing consistent manpages across systems. For an analysis of mdoc and competing formats, refer to Fixing on a Standard Language for UNIX Manuals, published in the USENIX magazine.
    I also feature the History of UNIX Manpages http://manpages.bsd.lv/history.html , which chronicles the development of manpages from the 1960s to the present day.

    The MIT ~PWB1 system had a thing called 'dpy', probably written at MIT based on 'ps' (and no doubt inspired by ITS' PEEK), which had similar functionality.
    Seems like it never escaped, though. Man page and source here:
