I'm wondering: Is the on-disk format of this "modified Fossil" compatible with P9 fossil? If so, it might work as the Plan9-Linux-universal file system the OP's looking for after all (less any bugs he might encounter in such young code). > I hope to fix all of these problems in the future. The lack of > console is obviously a big issue. For the OP's purposes (sharing an fs between Plan 9 and Linux), this might actually be tenable. The fossil console is typically used for administrative tasks, not generally during routine use (i.e., just storing and reading back files). If the OP's needs for fossilcons can wait until he's at a P9 box, it might be a practical setup... at least until the console is ported. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ |Smiley <smi...@icebubble.org> PGP key ID: BC549F8B | |Fingerprint: 9329 DB4A 30F5 6EDA D2BA 3489 DAB7 555A BC54 9F8B| +---------------------------------------------------------------+
