Hello 9fans, I've noticed that sometimes when resizing acme columns there is a strip left at the bottom that doesn't get redrawn. It's a bit hard to notice with the default colours, but changing it up makes it more obvious. I was able to fix it with this the following patch but am not sure if

It doesn't emulate 9P (protocol); it is in fact the Plan 9 implementation. The fan-in/fan-out of 9p connection is done by 9pserve (src/cmd/9pserve.c, partially emulating the Plan 9 mnt driver. Servers publish a 9p endpoint, and 9pserve is used to let multiple clients to establish 9p connections

You ought to be able to just add '\n' to the end of your expression in an 'x//' + 'd' command sequence. For example, "search the file for lines starting with [a-z] and delete the entire line" would be: Edit ,x/^[a-z].+\n/d On Fri, May 26, 2017 at 7:23 AM dexen deVries

You can use a cross platform file system event notification package like fsnotify/fsnotify or rjeczalik/notify, both on github. Instead of HEAD, may be just watch .git/index and when it changes, do git ls-files and see what changed. This will also catch local git add etc. though this probably
