DEC's OS/8 had three ways to invoke TECO - they were TECO, MAKE and
MUNG. If that in itself was not funny, if you ever typed:
MAKE LOVE
You would get the response:
Not war?
and TECO would then fire up as usual.
Alas - I can find nothing funny about VMS. DEC goes corporate.
Actually, this still works under VMS.
For more humor in VMS, though, you have to dig a little deeper.
F'rinstance, with V4.0 there are now two new internal structs for some
of the security code called KGB and CIA.
