Hello Lucio, Thank you for responding. Yes, I am trying to set up Mail on plan9 but it is for me like a blind man groping in the dark. I did manage to do it once, but have no idea how I did it! I love plan9 esp. sam and acme which I use extensively.  It is great to know that there is a fellow

[9fans] How to customize set of commands in acme

2023-01-15 Thread revrari
When I create a new acme session, I have a row of blue commands which accompany a row/document. (Not sure what these are  called.) I would like to know if one can add a few commands to the default values. For example, I would like to add *win* next to *Zerox* and *Delcol*. There are several

My apologies to @fgergo. The problem was in fact related to acme-sac which I had previously installed on my system but whose install I thought had failed. Once I removed that and reinstalled plan9port, the problem went away. Many thanks.  -- 9fans: 9fans
