I mentioned Guckes's list not having Heirloom vi in that other thread.

I haven't thought about these in years, and they are an understandable additional blind spot in Guckes's list; but the MKS Toolkit had a vi, as did Interix.

https://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/man1/vi.1.asp

The :open test indicates that vi in the MKS Toolkit was actual Joy+Horton vi.

#Interix (at least according to an old Scott Mueller book) had both vi and nvi, so I wouldn't be surprised if that turned out to have been Bostic #nvi by two names.

As I recall, Central Point PC Tools, the Norton Utilities, and the Graham Utilities had text editors of varying degrees but did not have vi.

Linux 4.19 requires at least OpenSSL1.0.0. @ncommander decides to use OpenSSL3.0 branch.
So he tries to compile OpenSSL3.0 which needs ≥Perl5.10. #Interix has Perl5.6. So he decides to compile Perl5.10.
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_0_0-stable/Configure#L8C1-L8C15 <- "require 5.000;"

Other people would use OpenSSL1.0.0 instead of OpenSSL3.0.x and have probably less problems.

I've wondered about the history of the naming before [1], anyone knows why they shortened the subsystem name when they moved from UNIX to Linux?
