Turn off the scroll in the rio window that the shell is running in, then
cat the file.

did plan 9 have any pager? or did every text file to be read had to be
opened in acme or a similar tool?
btw, is there any pager under plan9port? didn't know what to search for,
hence couldn't find any.

hi,
i just read that the rio in plan9port doesn't behave completely like the
rio in plan 9 because of problems inherent in x11/xorg.
could someone who understands x11/xorg well enough to have worked on
developing or enhancing rio under plan9ports please communicate with
keith packard? he's the go

Why? :) I can think of a good reason, but why don't you say why you want to do
it? Just feelings of what is right and wrong? Personally, my own fe

The original from Bell Labs. I had it installed in a very old

What do you mean by "a complete, installable system for plan9ports"?
If you mean one that uses p9p in place of gnu utils, that's something
I've thought about
trying to do before, but I'd suggest taking it one step further and
seeing if you could use

I think it is uninteresting: one can always install plan9port in a

More interesting is to have the original plan9 and perhaps a virtual

How soon would you start needing some form of support back-up?
It's a little random around these places, which is why promises are

I haven't got around to installing p9p on my fresh NetBSD/64 system
yet, for now it is just a PostgreSQL host.
But I can help and I may just need a shove to get on with things.
No big pr
i had been trying to work with a collaborator to develop a complete,
installable system for plan9port.
while initially being quite gung-ho about linux, an accidental discovery
and ensuing experiements show the freebsd environment to be a lot more
performant and responsive, almost as much as netbsd
yes, though i'd say also the opposite: unix philosophy can be
understood best through experience with plan9, also reading plan9
documentation.
