If you update from sources, you will get a bunch of binaries
that are a first cut at VMware tools for Plan 9. Running aux/vmware
in your termrc (it should be there already) starts them when you're
inside vmware, and does nothing otherwise. The main things
accomplished are:
- the snarf buffer is shared with the host system
- the mouse cursor isn't trapped anymore
Enjoy.
