Ciao,
Oliver
P.S.: OK, with a local nntp-server (innd or something like that,
a grep also could be done (find and grep), but *really*
grepping in the net... hehehh, fine OS. So I'm looking
for hardware then, where Plan9 will run witjout problems... :)
BTW: any hints for this? (what's about IBM notebooks?)
