Subject: [9fans] Plan 9 as Unix client?

Hi folks,

After a lengthy hiatus I'd like to get back to playing w/ Plan 9.  So far
the install from CD has been very smooth.

I have to remotely admin a FreeBSD server.  So far I've been using Tera Term
on Windows (i.e., an ssh enabled terminal emulator) but it's a pain doing
any serious file editing and I don't care to use either vi or emacs or
(needless to say?) X.

I'm assuming that Plan9's ssh client is as good as anything else, but how
viable would running acme w/ ftpfs connected to my server be as a remote
editor?

Also, has there been any attempt at implementing WebDAV as a filesystem in
Plan 9?

    John
