hiro: Yeah, I think your arguments make perfectly sense. I would still be interested to know whether Akshat had the same thoughts in mind:) I have great affinity for everything Plan 9 -- from the superficial interface to the depths of its methodology (although, I was recently dumped by venti).

I don't want to run Inferno outside of Plan 9, and certainly not over a remote connection to Plan 9 (these also being my only options -- unless someone wants to start creating drivers for Atheros wireless cards) Couldn't you run Inferno inside of plan9?

I seem to remember Mjl, the author if the inferno ircfs, wrote an ircfs for Plan 9 ages ago. Still, seems like a total waste of time when you have a perfectly fine one in limbo, which is a much more convenient language for building such a thing anyway. the op said he was running plan 9.

Uh, considering that ircfs is for Inferno (via Limbo), having a Limbo compiler to native Plan9 would be a potential solution, assuming the run time could be kept the same. On Sun, Jan 18, 2009 at 4:53 PM, Charles Forsyth fors...@terzarima.netwrote: Or have a native Limbo compiler; I've been
