i still miss 9vx. it was so convenient when it worked. fun too; i had it full-screened in a little laptop & it felt like it was native. i've tried to use inferno in the same way, but i found it rougher than plan 9 and it lacks awk.
> Personally I find the 9vx environment more to my liking as I can edit code with vim, use Finder, etc using OS/X concurrently with Plan9 -- yes, I know that is heretical to die-hard Plan9 folks, but I'm a *nix guy foremost and a Plan9 newbie.
this was exactly how i used it until i got used to acme, but i also got used to eagle mode and badly missed that when i switched to native plan 9. i still miss it. if i could code half as well as i'd like to, we'd have a zui file manager & notes organizer by now.
