[9fans] Acme: spaces in file names
Perhaps making the tagline a special case where acme will read from the left to the bar | and use that for the file/directory name. You would still have to chord it elsewhere but it might fix the most annoying issue (inability to one click put etc) Thoughts?

Not supporting space in file/directory names has been the single biggest impediment to my use of acme. I noticed Wily doesn't have this problem. Of course it is missing win, Edit, Tab, etc Thanks.

What exactly is the purpose of this e-mail? Advertising? Fishing? Is this an automated shotgun e-mail designed to extract some information from the 'Net? An AI test? I thought that never hear someone say that there sense currently uses of binary code. One person told me that there are three or more years ago the University of Latvia and Riga Technical University taught code in binary. I like both this subject that is irresistible to me, who are better than the developers of Plan 9, the successor to Unix from AT T to address this issue? I doubt if there is better people than the developers of Plan9 to answer that.

Re: [9fans] Acme: spaces in file names
Thanks for the suggestion. I really wish acme were just fixed. I find acme a beautiful editor. A small number of issues render the editor too much of a hassle to use for me. It is a shame because I really like it. It is clean, simple, easy to learn, and powerful. Thanks.

Rio with the new memlayer is mostly working. Windows can be reshuffled to the front, and drawing on partially-obscured windows works perfectly. Acme windows do not work correctly; I believe this is because of a bug in attaching to ``named screens''. The root window is also not repainted correctly, but all other windows are, so that will be a simple fix. I'm currently fighting a bug where the window order is corrupted when a window is hidden, but I've almost got it licked. I hope to have these bugs fixed soon, and then I'll start working on some of the features I had planned to complete this summer :). i'm impressed by the progress of this project. this project has been a reminder that pass-by-reference is not such a good idea. and makes the progress more impressive to me. - erik
