Well, here is the result of my request for the the 10,000 names of
UNIX.  What we have here is a list of the names of software that
is, tries to be, wishes it were, pretends to be, or looks a bit like UNIX.

Thanks to the dozens of you who sent me additional names and corrections
to last year's list.

If there are still more names &/or corrections, I think I still want them.
