Topicbox-Message-UUID: 4b12f0ac-ead4-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 We had a prototype that tried to reproduce in a web page the UI structure as described by o/mero. Nothing that really could be used in practice. In the end we abandoned that and used inferno for the client software (terminal). It's funny the post about using Sepxs to transfer FS trees, because that's quite similar to what o/mero does to send updates to the viewer, o/live. It sends a batch of the UI tree that changed. Anyone experimented with providing this as a general feature for a FS? (I think I understood that in one of the posts, but I'm not sure). > From: ericvh@gmail.com > To: 9fans@9fans.net > Reply-To: 9fans@9fans.net > Date: Thu Nov 20 15:26:39 CET 2008 > Subject: Re: [9fans] web-based plan 9? > > On Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 7:35 PM, Pietro Gagliardi wrote: > > Take a look at this: > > > > http://www.blazebyte.org/gnextop/ > > > > It runs a complete Linux system in a web browser, so users of the > > PlayStation Portable can finally write software for it without fear of being > > bricked by Sony's anti-piracy measures. > > > > Can Plan 9 have this?
