It's pretty easy to compile software on Plan 9. Just get the tarball and unpack it. There's usually a mkfile in the base directory of the source tar, so just running 'mk' is usually sufficient. If there's a README, read it. Now, if you just have a foo.c file, just do this: 8c foo.c 8l foo.8 and find the executable in ./8.out. You can then install it by copying it to $home/bin/386/ or /bin.
