Message-ID: <19980825005354.nZPF6oC3w0cD-BogEWt7DO0CUa7MP9CTHk6XM-MZ4Gs@z> (raw)

    The default download version appears to be 13.36, but there
    is a 13.41 which presumably a pre-release version.

    Any recomendation which to do for?

Grab 0.13.41, it fixes a few bugs from ...36.

Any more questions about wily, send them to me
<gary@cs.usyd.edu.au> or <wilyfans@jli.com>

    Anyone know of any other Plan9 utilities that are available
    for Unix systems? (other than sam, 9term, 9wm and rc?).
    The mk docs mention Unix compatibility, but I havn't
    come across a Unix version.

That covers most of the nifty user interface bits.

The main thing I miss is the per-process name spaces,
but that's way harder to retro-fit.

It'd be sort of nice to have Alef/Limbo, too.
