[9fans] sed line length limit
hi list, it seems p9p sed has line lenght limit at about 1024 bytes. however, instead of crashing and burning, or returning some error, it just happily spews truncated output. i've just been bitten by it :D -- dexen deVries [[[↓][→]]] Weightless and alone you speed through the eerie nothingness of space you circle 'round the Moon and journey back to face the punishing torment of re-entry -- LUNA-C, ``Supaset8 (full release)'', #24m52s
Re: [9fans] test -w on directory
kb=4096 say what!? fittingly, it's unused. i'd suppose it was probably going to reduce the buffer size on a wirelessly-connected ipaq

You did not misunderstand. I'm currently traveling. I return late monday, and will deal with this (and the other similar requests I got) within a day or two thereafter.

Re: [9fans] formatting the manual from plan9 ports?
See the example in tr2post(1) On Thu, May 24, 2012 at 9:03 PM, Aharon Robbins arn...@skeeve.com wrote: Is there a simple recipe to use p9p troff to format the manual pages from the plan 9 dist? I.e.: Install Plan 9 Ports wget plan9.iso from bell labs mount said iso /some/where 9 rc cd /some/where/sys/man # magic stuff here (Or tar off the dist to regular files where things are writable.) Thanks! Arnold
