The manual pages take some getting used to, but, believe me,
everything you need is held in them.

I can't mix those two, although occasionally I have to. Acme is my
choice, Sam has one advantage: Acme just can't operate remotely the
way Sam can, from Plan 9 native, a feature I greatly miss.

Yes, nothing Plan 9 can do about that, sadly. Although Acme's
automatic "dump" on failure or disconnection has saved me quite a lot
of load shedding-induced frustration.
I've been using Plan 9 since 1995, you wouldn't be able to pry it from
my cold, dead hands. I'm not an expert, like many others on 9fans and
its siblings, but I would find it hard to manage without its services.
