well, kernel binaries are different for terminals and cpu servers, but these are built from the same source code. in reality the kernel is the same modulo some drivers and one variable ( e.g. no vga in cpu servers). -Steve On 19 Dec 2014, at 03:15, da Tyga cyberfo...@gmail.com wrote:

in reality the kernel is the same modulo some drivers and one variable ( e.g. no vga in cpu servers). It's actually quite easy to make a single binary which can be configured at boot time to be either cpu or terminal, depending on a plan9.ini variable. IIRC it's a few lines of code in each of

I haven't ever use 9vx. In what sense you find it more useful than 9front? 9vx is really just a kernel, so you can use 9vx with any of the Plan 9, 9atom or 9front user space. Also, 9vx have a different purpose than a Plan 9 installation. For example, you can use 9vx on top of Linux, as a

Thanks, David, for the answers. That said, now that Plan 9 is not as actively maintained as it used to be, 9legacy might move to his own full distribution. Are then 9legacy and 9atom too apart to somehow merge them? Ruda

[9fans] 9p on iOS?

2014-12-19 Thread Anthony Sorace
I have a project for which I need 9p on iOS. Anyone have an Objective C module that'll do that, or experience fitting in a C library? I'm looking for something much more self-contained than what's found in the drawterm port.
