Hello,
If I am right, there are some patches enabling mouse chords in sam as
well as using focus follows mouse (like acme).
I found some kind of the former in Steve Simon's contrib.
What about the latter?
Thanks

when i can't use cpu and secstore to log in directly, i use netkey.
there are non-Plan9 implementations of netkey.
i think i've got a Java version somewhere.
do you have the fonts?
they do not come with plan9port, because the
postscript fonts cannot be redistributed except
with plan 9 itself.

Now for the problem behind all this. I am basically required to use troff

that makes sense. unfortunately, this means that any

It's just not that hard to use the iwp9 macros with plan9port.
They work fine, and if you put .FP luxisans at the top of your
ms file you can get a nice-looking BH-designed sans serif font too.
And then when you submit the source to them you or they
can delete that one line. It's easy.

The advantage of the tap device is precisely that it does not need
root permissions. You need those permissions to manage the devices,

You are right in that Lout cannot handle non-ASCII input, which is
something that kept me from using it much, as well. However, the
overall approach to the syntax and what not is much nicer than TeX.
Also, I would argue that Lout has much nicer output than both, troff
and TeX.
