Subject: [9fans] success with 9vx from a terminal
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2008 08:35:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87hc75mz6q.fsf@cox.net> (raw)

Last night I downloaded 9vx.  It works fine from a terminal, using
the following invocation:
../9vx.Linux -g -u glenda
where -g is the option to run sans GUI.
This has one or two complications.  There is no way to interrupt or kill
the foreground process.  Instead, ctrl-c interrupts 9vx itself.
Anyway, I managed to get an emulated Plan 9 system up and running.
Both ed and "sam -d" work well for editing text.
