No, look but until I have read an article about Plan-9 (http:/www.itc.kiev.ua/ko) (note: it's in Russian :( ) I I thought that nobody try to seriously step over UNIX concepts. (Actually all modern OS it's a UNIX but more or less distorted :) But I find out that there is the Plan-9 where no stupid libraries. Where any application could be activized though its STDIN, where no stupid overlapped protocols. Where, where, where. ... I told I is that which I been looking for. However, Plan-9 have UNIX-like user interface. With all of it's faults and preferences. Plan-9 got too mach from UNIX. :( As for end of 80'th Plan-9 was really revolutionary, as vor today not so.

I was wondering too why there is no C++ in Plan9 base. I realized gradually that with low and well-organized Plan9 complexity, plain C is enough for it, just like it was for Unix at the beginning. >> Hope, you do not mean 'acme' or 'plumbing' >> ideas are Unix-like ? :> > It is very small step.

But, sorry if I am wrong, I think that I can help people though my critics. There was a lot of cases when people hate me for my critic, and then done as I told. About UI I mean different. "this.reboot" is an address. "reboot" is a message. It's not a command. I just try to picture new conception of UI. --the Alternative Good bye. P.S.
