modulo other bugs, dossrv does something kind of interesting. if you explictly walk to x.c, you will have a match. but it doesn't do this when stating a directory. so if the file lists as "x.c" you should be able to compile it. ladd# cd /n/9fat ladd# lc 9LOAD 9PCCPU.GZ 9pccpu PLAN9.INI ladd# cat plan9.ini>/dev/null lladd# cat PLAN9.ini>/dev/null ladd# cat PLAN9.INI>/dev/null see /sys/src/cmd/dossrv/dossubs.c:/^mkalias for dossrv's 8.3 tricks. - erik
