You execute "New", then type the URL INCLUDING http:// in the blank tag that comes up (below the "Del Snarf Get" commands) and either hit enter or execute "Get". > I'll need to learn how to access host and network resources in QEMU before > I'll be able to mount my fat partition. Here's a different idea: set up QEMU as a standalone CPU server (per the instructions on the wiki) and use drawterm to connect. You can then access host files via drawterm; they'll be in /mnt/term > I decided not to add the network and web commands to my profile, because I'm > not sure I'll be wanting to use them every time, while I'm learning to use > QEMU and Plan 9.

For the Web, I'll just type webfs when I need it. How to write an executable script? Don't you use Unix? It's the same: 1. Put #!/bin/rc at the top of your file 2. chmod +x file You could have easily looked at something like /rc/bin/sig or whatever to figure out the same stuff, but I guess it continues to be easier to post on 9fans than to think.
