At http://lsub.org/ls/octopus.html you may find links to omero.src.tgz and to omero.dis.tgz Also at /n/sources/contrib/nemo/octopus There are man pages included and a readme detailing how to run it. (http://lsub.org/sys/oman has the entire man for the octopus). olive(1) contains all the information needed to learn to use this weird thing, although you might need to refer to Plan 9's sam(1) or its tutorial regarding the command language. I wouldn't use it other than to test and try it. It might eat your files. I'll be using it instead of Plan B's omero from now on and it's likely that most of the bugs remaining will bite me in the near future. To avoid adding noise to the list, I'll be updating the distribution in the web and sources but I wont send further announces regarding this thing. BTW, this time I'm using charon's fonts and I wont believe that it crashes for you due to fonts (it will do for all other things, probably). thanks in advance for any stack dump :)
