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

Hi there, It seems that it is *possible* but... Well, have a look at [1]. It almost certainly will break in some cases. For starters, if a dirty file is modified outside of acme it won't work; you'll have to clean that up yourself. Also, grepping the tag for 'Put |' is a screaming hack but

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

I thought about that. you can explicitly give that preference to the working window by fully maximizing it (i.e. making all the tags disappear with button 3), so it didn't seem justification enough to me. But maybe it is. On 28 October 2016 at 16:37, Mark van Atten

I suspect one reason for placing the stack at the bottom is that it gives you a consistent area to target, at the top, when going back to work on your primary window. If they were stacked top down then, depending on how many files you had open, you might have to more carefully target how to get
