Kip, 
as it turned out, my 'UG' dir contains the TOP package.
TOP is an acronym for "The OS-9 Project". It is a collection of OS-9/68000 software 
developed primarily in Germany.
Much of it seems to be an attempt to make OS-9 a little more UNIX-like. 
Many standard UNIX utilities are provided, as well as a complete UUCP mail implementation, 
and a more secure password file and login program. Many traditional UNIX games are also provided. 
The total package consumes approximately 16 MB of disk space, though much of this is source code.
