He has been MIA since March 11, and his last cat-v blog update was
from around that time. Isn't he supposed to be taking care of some
things, like the Contrib Index page of the wiki? I just modified his
contrindx and updated it myself.
No, I wasn't around that time :-) But I was looking for the Hello
World X11 paper a while back, which was pre-website USENIX. But on the
USENIX website it seems that you can purchase papers from before
1991(?). Perhaps they had a paper?

OK,
Have you done a port of Newsqueak to Plan 9? I tried using Rob's
original code (and failed, albeit not very miserably).
What do you mean by "monte carlo" - the solitaire? Perhaps a look at
the concept would be helpful.

And I had lots of problems porting that to Plan 9. It works well on my
Mac, though.
I have a program grepman that searches the actual man pages rather
than just the index (which is what lookman does). It turned up
nothing. The First Edition manual, which Uriel hosts, also has
nothing. I can't seem to figure out what this does.

If you are conforming to style(6), awk can generate stub functions
quite easily.

Hello. I decided to teach myself the 33 libraries of Plan 9 (even
those that I partially know), and I started with libthread, Sape's
implementation of Newsqueak-esque threads in C.
One of Rob's favorite programs is Doug's Newsqueak Sieve of
Eratosthenes. It's a simple Newsqueak program that
on Bentley showed me how to count simple algorithms.
I'm not so sure this is very simple at first glance.

The program spawns n + 2 threads. sieve and counter are only spawned
once, but filter is spawned for every prime number.
With Roger's command line, primes took me about 91 seconds - possibly
because it isn't looking for a specific end. primes 1 2837711 takes 43
seconds.

Hello. Just out of curiosity, does anyone have the second or third

If anyone has any papers that are not included in any of the existing
collections I would love to get a copy.
