you have to be careful with these feature requests, some don't really bring plan 9 forward, because they are too generally useful and not plan 9 specific enough. On 11/20/16, Chris McGee wrote: > I like the idea of focusing on the functionality, not specific software, > that

Re: [9fans] Plan 9 5th Edition

I like the idea of focusing on the functionality, not specific software, that could go into a 5th edition. It seems that stepping back and rethinking popular industry trends led to some of the unique and interesting decisions that gave us plan9 in the first place. Here is what I'd like to see

Re: [9fans] Plan 9 5th Edition

calling into firmware code is a big can of worms because firmware is full of bugs and only works with a small set of the major operating systems that the firmware authors tested it with. and theres not really an option for doing it from userspace. you need to call it from kernel mode ring zero

for 5th edition i wanna see a turing machine where the tape is exported through a file server, it should support jumping to arbitrary times via a ctl file. that way we can solve complex problems very easily from simple rc scripts. for example: echo inf > turing/time/ctl; cat turing/tape On

I think there was a port of gcc at one time. It should be possible to use that to port later versions of gcc. Go is already ported, AFAIK, but I have not yet found an excuse to try it out. Personally, I would really like to have Ada (Gnat) working on Plan9. I have made enough errors in C and C++
