Good luck! The kernel is pretty readable and small enough to really
sit down and know what all the files are doing. Be warned that some of
the C is going to be in Plan 9's particular idiom, but in general you
can learn good practices from it. If you want to learn about writing
Plan 9 programs in general, check out the stuff under /sys/src/cmd.
