Dick ported the base X11R4 programs. They expect to be run against an X server
such as an NCD X terminal or an X window system on a personal computer or
workstation, and the name of said Xterm or workstation is expected to be the
value of the DISPLAY variable. You probably have to do something like run
xhost +
to be sure of connectivity.
As for the Unix tools, I have never been a power user of them in any of the
jobs I've held in the last 50 years, so I never bothered to try them on TOPS-20.
I don't know what's needed to make them work.

OK, I knew it was Perl 4, I just didn't know if there was anything beyond 4.0.
I didn't learn Perl until Perl 5.8, although I had looked at it several times
in the Perl 3/Perl 4 and was put off by the syntax of those versions.
