[9fans] rc expression question

given pathnames = ( foo/a.txt bar/b.txt baz/c.txt ) how do i construct arguments to test(1) that test for existence of those files in one go? wanted: test -e foo/a.txt -o -e bar/b.txt -o -e baz/c.txt assuming the pathnames may contain space characters.

[9fans] pipe: bug or feature?

Hello, I have been playing with an experimental code on pipe. the program read a file and write it to one end of pipe and then read it from another end of pipe. the buffer for writing pipe is named buf0, and for reading pipe is named buf. and I found the program does not finish unless sizeof(buf)

[9fans] new upas vs (lsub) mails

Hello, I am interested if someone has experience using both 'nupas' (I think 9front uses this now) and 'mails' (that people at lsub seem to use). The latter seems closer to 'nmh' (the logic of which I intuitively like). Can you comment on your experience? Erik Quanstrom in his 'Scaling Upas', sec

Re: [9fans] DNS

Doesn’t work quite right for me. It resolves a few steps and gets to an IP address but it never prints out the “answer” between - lines. If I do it for www.google.com then it does. Also it prints some console messages - "no rr from dblookup; crapped out" Pete
