Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2000 12:54:26 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200006151654.MAA22684@cse.psu.edu> (raw)
Java is a big deal to get working because in a failure of vision we
made the file name elements too short. It's a project rising fast
on our to-do list to fix that problem and then we'll be able to
port Java, which has its own failure of vision in requiring long
names in the file system.
SML is available locally but the Plan 9 port is quite old. I'll sniff
around and see if I can get the ML folks to update it.
Someone did get Perl going a long time ago, if I remember right,
but I don't remember who.
