% 9fs sources

/bin .
% time rc -c '{for(i in `{seq 1 100}){echo $i}}' > /dev/null

i always set $path to (/bin .)
it can be much faster, apart from anything else.

try this:

	cd $home/tmp
	cat > diff
	#!/bin/rc
	echo hi!
	<EOT>
	chmod a+x diff
	history -D $somefile
	diff $somefile `{yesterday $somefile}

Probably because one doesn't want to bind "." to /bin for every
"." visited, not because it's a good idea.

I read that as allowing the shell to run programs that the kernel would
reject.  I eventually understood it to mean that you can hide programs
where only the shell will find them.  Is the current directory one of
those places, I wonder?  I'm reluctant to figure it out for myself -
long day.

for the record, you can set the path.  e.g.
	path=($path /some/other/directory)
the default path is (. /bin).

jaketodd and john correctly point out that this
isn't the way it's done; bind(1) is the preferred method.
rc (the shell) is the only program that respects $path.
in fact that would be a sneeky way to run programs
from the shell that can't be exec(2)'d.
