Info:

9base is a port of various original Plan 9 tools for Unix, based on
plan9port. None of plan9port's GUI tools are included. The rc shell
included in 9base is distinct from the UNIX port of rc that already
exists in plan9/rc. The existing port is not entirely compatible with
Tom Duff's original rc shell, which is included in both plan9port
and 9base.

I've started a port of 9base for OpenBSD. (See attached.)

Status:

The text editor ed still fails to build on OpenBSD due to unresolved
mktemp issues, so I have removed it from 9base's original Makefile.
Everything else builds as expected on i386.

Sparc64 builds if OBJTYPE=sun4u in config.mk and yacc/9yacc is patched
to point to OpenBSD's native yacc. This is not yet reflected in the port
becuase I do not yet know how to configure arch-specific options in
the port Makefile.

It is not clear to me how the contents of the LICENSE file should best
be represented in the port Makefile. Advice on this would be greatly
appreciated.
