Re: I Was Fired From Google ( ask me questions about google thread )
I really want to read the paper that describes "undo"
"You know what you just did, if you hit this command, it like... 'un-does' it."

Hey question for you. I was telling some friends that you were the creator of undo. I seem to remember you having a little plaque/award for this? They asked if you were also the creator of redo? I'd like to think so but.. Anything you could tell me about this? Warren Teitelman to me More options 2:19 pm(0 minutes ago) Yes. Both Undo and Redo were described in a paper I wrote about 1970. --- Well that wasn't as nearly as amusing as I hoped. [/ QUOTE ] coz to Warren More options 2:30 pm (0 minutes ago) Got a link to that paper, or the name of it? I think there's some sort of "web-site" that looks for things on the internet if you type in its name.
