Is that a class of Python bugs or an awesome name for a Nerdcore band?

 So, how would a Plan9 solution for these usecases look like ?
 
 In fact, I intend to rewrite network-manager to some 9p-based solution,
 so I'd like to discuss this carefully before starting to lennert up
 something stupid.
 
 has it occured to you to try the system out as is?  nobody else has
 asked for it to be more unix like in the same way.  perhaps there's
 good reason for it to be the way it is.

To be fair, he's not talking about using Plan 9, just leveraging something
factotum-like under Linux.  I think he should be commended for spreading
the 9love in the face of rampant Lennartism, quixotic though it may be.

The user-mode (SLIRP) network stack in QEMU doesn't support ICMP.

 Problem solved.

Not to ruin a good story, but you can pass a file to Linux's man(1)
directly.  e.g.:

$ man ./slig.8

Methinks that's even easier than using drawterm...
