Unadvertised sh(1) feature?

[utzoo!decvax!harpo!eagle!mhtsa!alice!npoiv!npois!hou5f!hou5b!hou5c!hou5e!mat]

The use of ``^'' for ``|'' is historicsl.  Back in the old days of KSR33 s
and suchlike terminals it was kinda tough to type ``|'', so the original
shell let the circumflex stand in.

``historical'' means that anyone who challenges the rightful existance of
this feature will be burned as heretical on noet.flame.

BTW, anyone remember the original shell, written without structs because
there were none back then?  The shell that used pointers to ints to refer
to structs?  Y'nkow, v6 and before (like, hey, v5, and previous assembler
versions)?
