However, Steve Simon buried the lede in his reply: https://bitbucket.org/knieriem/pf9/downloads has a working sam, acme, plumber, etc in binary form. I just tested that sam and acme from there both work on my fussy 64-bit Windows machine. And they're in color!

Thanks Russ, This sounds great (given that haven't been able to completely eliminate Windows from my life).  Unfortunately, I can't seem to figure out quite what I need to do to install and/or build it so that acme works.  The documentation at https://bitbucket.org/knieriem/pf9 confuses me, since it talks about running mk, but I can't find an mk executable in any of the downloads.

Can you describe the steps you took to install/run it?
 
i just ran the binaries in the downloads. i haven't tried to build anything.

There are 5 downloads at https://bitbucket.org/knieriem/pf9/downloads.  Which one(s) did you use?
