      Yeah, going down to Xenix I always understood it to be a MS baby that got
    canned until I read it was a SCO baby. Xenix never adhered to standards,
    from the start ... but it was quite nice, as a cheap Unix clone. And at that
    time, begin able to do ALT-Fn to get new console screens was a nice feature
    in the days when there was no X, at least not for Xenix.
