Hello 9fans! After a year away from public Plan 9 projects and
development I have returned to full-time work on Plan 9 software and
services. Before posting about my current software project, I would
like to make note of two pages I added to the Bell Labs plan 9 wiki
which are intended as an overvi
i was thinkimg more of combating lack of sleep by using strongdrink(3) -
which eventually calls sleep(2). its on the strchr(3) page just before
strumpet.
I almost agree with Bruce. Best course of action is alcoholism.

So I read in New Scientist one time that being awake for more than a
certain amount of hours is the same as being lightly drunk.
I shouldn't be on the Internet at all really right now.
Sorry. What I meant was that rc's already-open file descriptors for
the pipefile'd file aren't affected by the bind, so for an rc to be
affected you need to run a new one. I saw this as being analogous to
how it sees environment variables.
I'm not interested in environment variables anyway, it'

I wouldn't. Just because something stupid _can_ happen doesn't mean
it _should_ (you can tab through form fields instead of using the
mouse, but then you lose the ability to type a tab...)
But I

I'm failing to see
cpu and exportfs accept a pattern file (-P) option.
with this, you can make cpu export only the namespace parts that
you want to give the cpu server access to.
the difficulty lies in how to decide what you want to export and
still keep cpu usefull. if you really assume a compromized cpu
server, t
When do you expect environment variables to change underfoot?

I know that about /tmp. I know devenv too. By the way, have you ever
noticed that the *env libc functions only allow accesses to env files
with names of length 100 - strlen("/env/") - sizeof '\0', while rc
allows names of up to 256 characters? I'm not too concerned about
that one, just saying it

Fuck, yes. Sorry. The idea seemed so perfect in my mind, and so
"obvious" that it didn't seem necessary to actually test it.

I'd like to dedicate this email to all the programs that don't know
how to expand environment variables.
See*, $path is no longer in the environment (more or less): it's a
union of all the relevant executables at a known place: /bin.

I tried this a while back before my eee 701, uh, got mostly dismantled. I
had to edit a file for the southbridge, if i recall correctly, to be
detected. looks like maybe you got past that too? the network chipset
is atl2, no driver for it, btw... i'd be interested to hear more about
this even

It does not have a floppy. You do not need cdfs for loading.
