I honestly respect you for having written the nemo book--you're nemo after all. That, however, won't change my stance on Plan 9 and the 9people. You have nothing else but "researching" OS's and "submitting" papers. That "justifies" your 9life. Others, like me, have some "petty" work to do. Like knowing which character on which line they're editing or controlling how long their lines of text get, _without_ resorting to acrobatics. --On Wednesday, August 20, 2008 12:14 AM +0200 Francisco J Ballesteros wrote: > I admit we all use plan 9 just to justify ourselves to read and write > threads like the one this post might trigger on 9fans. > For everything else, we use DOS, which is windows simplified, along with > edlin. > >
