Great, thanks Russ.
I have two suggestions for ape minor additions arising from my recent
attempts to run configure scripts on Plan9
1. Add this script (suggested by Russ) as /rc/bin/ape/egrep
#!/bin/rc
if(~ $1 -E) shift
exec grep $*
2. Make ls accept -i option (if inode numbers do not exists

it's /rc/bin/ape/ls that would change, not Plan 9's ls-proper.
what does autoconf do with the `inode number'?
on the contrary... I have always equated the plan 9 crowd as the
most punkrock of the alternative OS crowd.

I have no idea, but I know that removing the -i switch from configure
gets it going,
so just ignoring it should be good enough

Of course ape's one. As well as I am proposing to add egrep to ape's
tree not Plan9's native tree.

Jason: I understand your reasoning. However if two small fixes would
unblock execution of many projects' configure on Plan9 IMHO they are
worth making; they won't break anything.
I wasn't going to comment again on this, since it's ape's tools, not
the plan9 versions. I was obviously mistaken
I'm so envious :-(

Hi,
Working through the autoconf stuff I came across another issue: Plan9
awk does not seem to recognize a regexp that GNU awk does. This
results in config.status not properly creating config.h file based on
the configure's findings. The regexp in the test program was extracted
from
try using [_a-zA-Z][_a-zA-Z0-9] rather than the expanded form. i
didn't track it down to be sure, but plan 9 awk seem to have a limit
34 characters inside square brackets. a rather odd number
cpu% echo hello | awk '/^[abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGH].+/ {
line = $0 ; print line }'
cpu% echo
24 matches
