ULTRIX Reference Pages for Unsupported Software

This document, titled "Reference Pages for Unsupported Software" for ULTRIX Version 4.0 or higher (June 1990), serves as a manual for a specific subset of software that is not officially supported by Digital Equipment Corporation.

It details various unsupported commands, library routines, special files, file formats, games, and macro packages available for both RISC and VAX platforms. Key aspects highlighted include:

• Lack of Support: The software described is explicitly stated as unsupported; Quality Assurance Reports (QARs) are not accepted, and no warranties are provided. Much of this software is user-contributed or considered obsolete.
• Installation: This software is an optionally installed subset, typically installed via the setld command.
• Content Scope: The manual is organized into sections covering different software types (e.g., commands, library routines, special files, file formats, games, macro packages, and maintenance utilities).
• Documentation Caveats: Not all unsupported software is documented, and there may be differences in documentation levels between RISC and VAX platforms.
• Access: If installed by a system administrator, these reference pages are accessible online using the man command or the xman utility.
