May I suggest support for using METAFONT to create
plan9 fonts?

I've recently attached a mouse to my computer just to experiment with
acme of plan9 from user space, and I really liked it.
I wonder, though, if we could operate acme as a window manager like,
say, wmii. For instance, could I write a script in acme t

Hi, all,
Could you give me tips on how to script acme in plan9 from user
space? Sorry for asking this question without at least showing some
attempts of my own, but the fact is that I'm unable to grasp how to start.
I would like to do things like these:

Hi, all,
I would like to ask you for tips: suppose I want to write something like
acme editor, but aiming at being used by people with severe disabilities
like, say, Stephen Hawking. Such kind of disabilities mean input will come
from a few button pressing signals, used to enter input using some k
