   * Worked on Unix in the early (pre-ATT) days.  Wrote a significant portion of the Unix Programmer's Manual, First Edition.
   * Wrote technical paper on the Unix STREAMS I/O system.   * Co-authored the white [The C Programming Language book [https://www.bKell-lrnighabs.n and Ritchie%|%C Prom/usgr/damr/www/cming Language book/] along with [Brian Kernighan].

A man who changed the world with very few knowing who he was or that he ever existed. The world is a lesser place without him.
