Hi All,

I = managed to get it running after all of these years. In case anyone tries it= again here's a few things that I had to do to get it to work on the la= test 9front.

* Copy the latin1.h header file from = the bell labs distribution and copy it into /sys/src/9/port
* Run= ip/httpd/httpd -w /sys/web/9wd (this is where the installation copies the = web app)
* Patch /usr/web/9wd/js/draw/data.js by commenting out t= he "delete conn.imgs[id];" line
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 * Fu= ture draw commands come in referring to the old image for some reason and t= he server doesn't handle it well

Yes, when= I coerce the websocket tool to launch rio instead of acme there's some= oddness when I launch new graphical apps within rio from the windows, such= as acme. They tend to think that they should occupy the entire screen. Als= o, be patient because it is quite slow for now.

Does anyone know if David is still active in this space?

Erik, where can I learn more about the layers?
