There was another system that came out at the same time as Solo and the UCSD 
system: Tunis from Ric Holt then at Toronto.   It's written in concurrent 
Euclid which was one of many Pascal influenced languages of the time. It 
originally ran on the 11 but I believe was later moved to the 68k and I think 
even the 6809.    He has a book they describes it.  It's a system call 
equivalent of UNIX V7.  I believe that there was also a C compiler for it but I 
do not think its binary compatible.  

They did it a few years before AST released Minux which was his V7 clone he 
built to teach students. 

Does anyone know it there are sources et al for it?
