long before I ever heard of Plan 9, it supposedly had an X server ported to
it. ie you could run your X programs and have them display in a Plan 9
window.
this port has long disappeared, though i remember seeing 'x.tar.gz' once
in 2000 on the bell-labs anonymous ftp server.
there are also programs mentioned in the papers and man pages that only
exist (or have existed) internally, or at times there have been man pages
for stuff that didn't appear outside bell-labs' computers, but that's more for
the conspiracy-type people :)
