Re: [9fans] go forth and ulong no more!

perhaps they would, if everyone agrees to change to those. after a
previous discussion on the nix list,
i set off to change Inferno's code to use them, but quickly saw that
it was just going to be a big nuisance unless Plan 9,
p9p, drawterm, and all the rest changed at the same time. what are the
Young Turks of 9front doing?

i think all this misses the point of erik's manual page, however, was
to describe what the system provides now,
and was providing long before those alternative types existed, in the
attempt to make it more likely that things work
in both 32 and 64 bits.
