A friend sent this to me. Both of these mailing lists are likely
to find this of interest. I have a paper copy of the 1978 BSTJ,
either the '82 or '83 issues, whichever one was devoted to Unix. :-)

Am I missing something? VMware used to have better screen resolution
than 1024x768x8, didn't it? I'm getting kernel panic when I try and
switch to something higher. Suggestions?
Thanks,

imap4d with a password (which uses cram) now works.
imap4d with a cram challenge does not.

That line is tee-shirt worthy.
There are places you can get custom t-shirts made for a reasonable fee,
so you should be able to have one made ;-)

oh. and just like Plan 9 mkfile's and for the same reason, Inferno's mkfiles

the intention was to support building both inside and outside the Inferno
environment,
and neither sh nor mash were going to be as easy to reproduce
outside Inferno as simply making mk work (more or less) inside Inferno.

It refuses to fail now. I think it was something weird between linux
and vx32 but
that doesn't describe mash at all. my talk at IWP9 hinted on the functionality.
the first advice i was given when i started on inferno was not to port
everything in sight - think forward. fixing the awkward and backward
syntax and semantics of rc+mk, and the replication, was the
intention..

gotta love a race. perhaps you should try mk all in a loop until it fails?

I think there are some people using my vx32 repo.
Noah evans has pushed changes to make it build on OSX. Yiyus has done
a LOT of work on his vx32 repo and I just did a pull from there.
It all seems to work but ... building from the latest sysfromiso
fails. Here is the error:

that's pretty impractical. letting alone the type hell one would
have in porting a c compiler, i don't know of any 8 bit parts with
an mmu, and the avr is es

Hardware programming is fun. Side effects include nausea and vomiting.
you're doing it wrong.
