This should be supported in the newest versions of 9vx (either mine, ron's
or 0intro's, there's no difference), but not in 0.12. You can use either a
plan9.ini file or a command line argument. It's no different from what
you'd do from a real terminal. (Read the man page!)

Even if, for any reason, you prefer the old version you may be able to
integrate the original patch by BLS. There should be some message by him in
this list where he explains how to get it working with local file systems,
a remote one shouldn't be very different.
