It looks like we are down to:

asa:           not in the book
c17:           not in the book
cflow:         not in the book

We actually have fcrontab and could create a symlink for crontab.

I'm pretty sure that compress (and uncompress) are the old names for gzip and gunzip.
Files that used compress used a .Z extention.

sccs is an obsolete 'source code control system' that has been replaced by cvs, 
subversion, and git.

write is/was a terminal version of a 1-to-1 chat.  There was a writeall command that 
an admin could use to write to all terminals.  With a graphical desktop environment 
it is quite obsolete.

I think we really do not need to address these ancient programs. Thanks for the research.
