On my work workstation I have bzip2 in the path, so I copied that
over. Thought some more, and Inferno ships with awk, so that's there
now, too. Both of these spit out carriage returns at the end of the
line, but they're functional and keep my fingers doing what they
should. I pack around Inferno on the same USB key, but usually I want
to monkey with files on the host in some semi-sane fashion and it's
faster to just fire up 9pm than to jump through the hoops in Inferno.
It occurred to me that it would be handy to either recompile awk and
bzip2 to not generate the carriage return, or maybe to handle it some
other way in 9pm so all of the local Windows utilities wouldn't be
such a pain.
I'd like plan9-ish awk (only utf8, no carriage return). And I'd like to
have 9term friendly telnet. Windows default telnet doesn't work in 9term
window :(.
Getting to the point, for those of you who still use 9pm, what have
you added to your path to make it more livable? Have you found that
any of the utilities that ship with Inferno are more up to date?

I've added mingw to the path. Everything else is cool.
