Hello,
I have been following the development of Plan9 for some time now, but I
was wondering what shells are being supported? I mean can I still use
csh or (pd)ksh when I make the switch to Plan9?
And what GNU software is supported except for GCC?
Thank you in advance,
Jasper Lievisse Adriaanse.

pdksh has been ported. it is called ape/psh, though you should
try the plan 9 shell rc. no gnu software is supported.
if you just want to run gnu software, plan 9 is not for you.
