Topicbox-Message-UUID: e1f3e970-ead1-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm fed up with having to use an ugly GUI for running perforce, and I've just realized that a synthetic file system interface to it would let me automate a lot of my acme-side connection to it, reasonably cleanly. On plan9 I'd just crib one of the shell script-based file servers and run from there; is there an equivalent for Linux? Especially with v9fs now in the kernel?
