Subject: [9fans] iwp9: lightweight nonhierachical navigation

Thanks for putting up the proceedings.
The extension described in "a light-weight non-hierarchical filesystem navigation extension" paper sounds a bit like zsh's ** extension. In zsh a/**/b matches all existing paths with prefix a and suffix b, where a and b can be arbitrary subpaths. So for example
wc sys/src/**/*.[ch]
To wc all .c and .h files under sys/src. Zsh added many more extensions to pick files but ** is the most useful one.
