Re: [9fans] Plan9 for a newbie

for those who don't use ^m for newlines,
you can also use the insert key on pc keyboards. ;-)
this is built into rio and acme so the shell is a non
sequitor.  completion is not available at the console.

it is unfortunate that completion is tied to a fixed
namespace and unfortunately it's usually the wrong one.
(plumber has the same problem.)  the existance of 
awd hints at this problem.

there is enough information in /dev/$pid/ns.
but how would rio or acme know which $pid is executing?
