dd behaves differently from cp, and patch/create
uses cp.  in particular cp tries to copy the mode
bits along.

i thought it would be easier to be correct in adding
4 lines to cp than writing a shim than makes dd work
like cp.  especially since cpmtu had already been
written.

i could be wrong, but that's what i was thinking.

by the way, my method is completely bogus and
accidentally works most of the time.  that should
be obvious from the fact that i'm using an mtu of
700 rather than 1500 or even 1510.  tcp, being a
stream protcol, doesn't respect write boundaries.
so even if the 9p messages are small enough, tcp
helpfully packs them together.

(unfortunately changing the mtu on a running interface
hung the interface.  i don't know if this behavior
persists.)

9p2000 mostly hides the stream nature of tcp,
but once in a while it rears its head.

How about dd?

CINT has nothing to do with cin.  There is a good paper on cin in the
9th Edition docs.

It went on to become vice, which has an X interface, or samuel, which
has a sam interface.

CINT looks pretty sucky.

I solved it.
The source of this problem was an old NAT program on my router.
Thanks Erik, you show me where to look for it.

I used CINT only together with ROOT and personally felt using C++ as a
interpreted language a little weird; no technical remarks here, only
personal ones, tho.

Anyway, as far as I could tell, people I know who work with ROOT on a
more daily basis write the programs as usually they do with C++ the
only difference being that they aren't compiled. They don't seem to
use the interpreter as much as programmers from other languages
considered as interpreted do.
