Hi all, In plan9port, back in 2020, I wrote a new parser in rc to clean up a few things, most notably that = signs are now allowed in command arguments. This makes rc much nicer for using programs with -foo=bar flag syntax. It was pointed out to me that I may not have announced it here, so I'm belatedly mentioning it now, in case the Plan 9 distributions want to pick it up.

This is very helpful when you are cycling through many results and go one step too far. To pick that up, the Plan 9 mouse driver would have to be updated to treat shift-click as adding 5 to the usual button number. (That is, the normal buttons are 0 1 2 3 4, and the shifted ones are 5 6 7 8 9.) https://github.com/9fans/plan9port/commit/0c79c32675e83ff3d87d5bf52082652d85486a45 Best, Russ ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T1dee2a7aea3f7fa3-M8c1df39be15674b13bd6a7b6 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
