Multics Systems Programmers Manual as of 1969-04-01, comprising 996 PDF Files

While working on my current "UNIX history project" I ran across this:

Jerry Saltzer created an online scanned copy of the Multics Systems Programmers' Manual (MSPM) in this directory.

Based on the 1969-04-01 MSPM, the repo comprising 996 PDF files.

In order to help preserver the MSPM, I have copied the archive here:

Code:
https://www.unix.com/multics/mspm/



Ref:

Code:
https://www.multicians.org/mspmtoc.html

In order to contribute back to this honorable Multics effort, when I get a chance I will write a PHP program to extract the document numbers and titles from each file in the PDF archive and create dynamic HTML index to compliment the PDF files.
