Not that Phil's response is in any way lacking (I had no idea of the
port of ALEF to UNIX), but I asked Rob the same question a couple of
weeks ago, and his response was that Acme is "pretty deeply wedded"
to concepts in Plan 9 that have no analog in UNIX.  (This seems fairly
obvious from the various papers.)

I too would love to see some sort of Acme under UNIX (or even Plan 9. :-)
Heck, just the general availability of Acme's ALEF source would be enough
to appease me for a few weeks... :-)
