Re: [9fans] Command to set samterm label

[umbraticus]

Sorry, didn't mean to come off as insisting you had to do it
my way (I am guilty of hacking all kinds of things into my
own samterm); just wanted to point out there are other ways
besides adding a new command to sam.

There is a patch for this floating around somewhere: perhaps
whoever wrote it can chime in.

Below is a quick illustration of the other thought I had,
having label reflect the most recently topped buffer, in
case you are or anyone else is interested.

Re: Posix implementation of Plan 9 cpu(1) (Was: [9fans] Command to set samterm label)

[Steve Simon]

my cpu for windows was always incomplete, but good enough that i never finished 
it properly.

for posix i just use sftpfs or now cinap’s sshftp to import the filesystem from 
the posix box as /n/fred and run sam locally (i am a samista rather than an 
acmeite)

i cannot run stuff remotely but i can edit in a nice environment. is this not 
enough?

-Steve
