	Darn.  I have three bum mice. button 2 does not work.I have upgraded
the wiki and am rarin to go.  Can I use commands and <enter> ? Doesn't
seem so.  Anyway to fix these wayward 3 button serial mice?

How do I open the postscript file?

that ftpfs is nice.  Took me a while to understand that the directory
was mounted locally.  cp did the trick.  Too simple.

How can I go to plan9 website and get stuff directly from it?  I got the
wiki upgrade onto a local box using a browser and ftpfs'ed it from
there.  hget doesn't seem like an answer.

For fun, How do I put a jpg on the rio?

Thanks more.

Do I need any of the updates if I just downloaded a week ago?
