Perhaps you can download the source code of original learn command
|
|
from: <<A HREF="http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/">http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/</A>>
|
|
|
|
The README file said:
|
|
|
|
Learn was originally written by Mike Lesk with some contributions
|
|
from Brian Kernighan. The paper in this directory dates from the
|
|
second version of learn, around 1979.
|
|
|
|
This version of learn has been resurrected from the original V7
|
|
source and edited enough that the source compiles and the
|
|
lessons can be executed. We have made no attempt to update the
|
|
lessons, nor to fix some of the glaring problems with the code.
|
|
Think of it as a historical document, not a polished system.
|
|
|
|
cd src
|
|
make
|
|
learn
|
|
|
|
I had once played around this code, but it wouldn't work on my system.
|
|
|
|
There is another GPLed implementation, which can be downloaded from:
|
|
<<A HREF="http://www.moria.de/~michael/learn/">http://www.moria.de/~michael/learn/</A>>
|
|
|
|
I have version 0.3 of this. The newer version may comes up.
|
|
This can be compiled and worked, but I did not have enough time
|
|
to check this well.
|
|
|
|
FYI.
