is xenix unix....

Well, for casual users the interface to XENIX V looks much the same as
UNIX V, same system calls + some backward compatible calls for XENIX III.
But when you're trying to do some administrative work - setting up
terminals etc. you'll quicly finds that XENIX owns a lot to V7 UNIX in
its way to do this - which is very confusing when you're expecting a
SVID compatable way of setting these things up (inittab & gettydefs).


So I would say that XENIX V is some sort of hybrid system between V7,
System III and "real" System V, but with a strong touch of system V.
