Hello,
trying to use acmeedit I got from sb here I encountered this in
$PLAN9/lib/acme.rc file:
fn newwindow {
winctl=`{9p read acme/new/ctl}
winid=$winctl(1)
winctl noscroll
}
fn winctl {
echo $* | 9p write acme/$winid/ctl
}
... many more lines
I believe the
I am sorry, ignore it, please. I can have both variable and function

I have a lot of old kit around and can't for the hell of me figure out
which drives do need and which ones don't want DMA, occasionally
losing if nothing else a lot of time and effort in repairing a bad
