Gccgo has a C++ front-end with a recursive descent parser coupled to the standard GCC back end. Gc is written in C using yacc/bison for the parser. Although it's a new program, it fits in the Plan 9 C compiler suite (http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/doc/compiler.html) and uses a variant of the Plan 9 loader to generate ELF binaries." So I believe it could be ported... As for a comparison to limbo, I think someone who knows more about limbo would be better qualified to delve into the language, but for one thing it isn't tied to Inferno, and compiles natively, as opposed to dis.

If you look at the infomercial -- it seems like it might run on Plan9. At least the name of the compiler suggests it: 6g ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwoWei-GAPo Thanks, Roman. P.S. Russ, are you working for Google now?

Topicbox-Message-UUID: 98d3c798-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 Not yet. There's an 8g, so it should (in principle) be portable. But it requires user-mode support for setting LDTs. But I'm really not any sort of expert at all, just an interested observer. Maybe Rob or Russ will poke in and say something.

Topicbox-Message-UUID: 98da2f98-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 i'm sorry but i was being facetious, in line with the old meme of "will it run linux" popular some 10 years ago. serious question: can i have a link to the 9p implementation, pretty please? it doesn't appear in the module list on their website.
