[9fans] p9p acme will not open a directory

[Bengt Kleberg]

Greetings,

Is it a know problem for p9p acme on Linux that it will not open (B3) a
directory with a name like this:
ct_run.ct@seasc0642.2008-04-15_14.10.00

I can get around the problem by opening a win and cd into the directory
so it is not a great problem.

it's not acme's fault.

b3 send the selected text to the plumber.  if you are using
the default rules
	$PLAN9/lib/fileaddr	p9p
	/sys/lib/plumb/fileaddr	plan9
define
	addrelem='((#?[0-9]+)|(/[A-Za-z0-9_\^]+/?)|[.$])'
	addr=:($addrelem([,;+\-]$addrelem)*)
(@ doesn't match) and then plumb/basic has this rule for files
	type is text
	data matches '([.a-zA-Z¡-￿0-9_/\-]*[a-zA-Z¡-￿0-9_/\-])('$addr')?'
	arg isfile	$1
	data set	$file
	attr add	addr=$3
	plumb to edit
	plumb client window $editor
but your file doesn't match, so it isn't plumbed as a file.

You can open it with New or B.

By default, right-clicking a string like that tries
to send an email.  The rules are in $HOME/lib/plumbing
(or /usr/local/plan9/plumb/initial.plumbing if that
doesn't exist) if you want to customize them.

It's not trivial to fix the plumbing rules, because
opening directories in acme depends on directories
not matching *any* plumbing rules.
