Of the brief trials I did with this, it seemed to get messy. Although there is already an ircfs for Inferno, since I don't want to run Inferno outside of Plan 9, and certainly not over a remote connection to Plan 9 (these also being my only options -- unless someone wants to start creating drivers for Atheros wireless cards), I've begun work on an FS backed IRC client for native Plan 9. Steve Q. has been kind enough to provide me with some ideas and code from his previous tries at something like this (i.e., stuff previously found inside /n/sources/contrib/steve/chatfs-unfinished.tgz). suggestions, code, wifi card drivers, women interested in finding men on obsolete operating system discussion mailing lists... all welcome, ak
