Since I'm getting back into the swing of things, I want to give praises as well as scoldings. Scoldings: interoperability for doing things like exporting filesystems to Inferno and importing these is a huge pain in the ass, and poorly documented. (Yes, I know, write documents, Devon). I'm just pointing out that, after talking with Kris for 2 hours last night, I finally got the magical auth stuff and everything working well enough to mount my Inferno exported filesystem. (I tried exporting from Plan 9 to Inferno, but I kept getting fversion conversion problems).
Please do write it up, I currently have a idea running in the back of my head of making inferno drawtermable, and leveraging the recent port of drawterm to os x. Then no need to use X11 for inferno. There's probably a better/more simple way of doing this.
A lot of my problems are due to misconceptions and misunderstandings about what things do. Praises: cpdir -m is amazing. 10 thumbs up. Cookies, kudos and beer. Utilities like this need to be in the main distribution. --dho
