is posting to 9fans now easier than grep?
probablly not. recently i've been working with a
few non-plan 9 guys, and the ones that take the
time to look at the system are at first appalled
by the simplicity. that's it? really, that's it. i've
learned to ignore that. inevitably, a question
similar to this thread comes up. how to i find xyz.
i get xyz error message. well, g xyz /sys/src.
that's it? really, that's it.
i think the complexity of most systems can knock
one of one's rhythm and forget that it can be
as appalingly simple as grep.
plan 9 is fairly unique in that it's a system one can
reasonablly hope to understand by reading the source.
that's it? really, that's it.
