devsrv and #s is what I pointed to. It is a means of
publishing services between namespaces. #s can pass
a channel to either a pipe or file system by posting
a name in a global place. The code to post a channel
is in srv.c but I meant look at the device driver.
8½ and other file servers make themselves available
using this mechanism. Files posted in srv can also
be opened and acessed remotely via srv. From a cpu
connection look at /mnt/term/srv. If you look at
/rc/bin/window you can see it work.
