    This is wonderful. I've got v4 up and running in a simh-pdp11 emulator on Linux, feels so familiar to me, despite being older than v4 and being a long time user of Linux.

    It is strange and sad that this websites has a login associated with Google. Let's hope someone who values privacy and respect that remove this connection to Google because that is a disaster.

    So put the uBlock Origin or Pi-hole to work to stop this abusive crap.

      Let me add a few more words, while we should all appreciate the archive.org works and we should, their https://archive.org/about/terms are from 2001. There is no single mention of Google but they mention Netscape. Do they have anyone who manages their privacy terms? I'm sure this Google scripts are not from 2001.
