9base fork renamed to frontbase

9base fork renamed to frontbase

[sl]

Frontbase is a fork of the suckless 9base tree made immediately before
they switched to git:

	https://code.9front.org/hg/frontbase

Its purpose is to provide a basic set of Plan 9 utilities in the
spirit of the original 9base.  Simple shell tools, now with 33% more
German ("Our Germans are better than their Germans") engineering.
Frontbase could be considered a pared down companion to front9port,
the as-yet nascent, 9front-related fork of plan9port.

Even before frontbase forked, suckless had agreed to include several
changes from 9front that never made it back into plan9port.  Changes
already applied include:

	- Various fixes and updates to rc(1).
	- Patched read(1).
	- Added rm(1).
	- Added ssam(1).
	- Added urlencode(1).
	- More stuff obscured by opaque commit messages.

Proposed new changes:

	- Use $9FRONT instead of $PLAN9 to avoid stepping on 9base or
		plan9port.
	- Add u9fs.
	- Add file(1) from 9front.

Future plans:

	- Diff existing commands and libraries against 9front.
	- FreeBSD port/package.
	- OpenBSD port/package.

I haven't done any of this stuff yet but if there are no objections I
plan to begin shortly.

$9FRONT is not a valid identifier in sh(1).  I propose we use $GOROOT
instead.

How about $PLAN9FRONT?

change made in my branch, hg repo here:

Builds and superficially works (I only tested sam -d) on OpenBSD/amd64 5.9.

FreeBSD/amd64 10.3 build dies thusly:

Builds on linux/amd64 with gcc 6.1.1, but only after setting CC9=cc
in LOCAL.config.

I really, really, really don't like having to specify compilers.  It's C
or it isn't.

if you are getting error:

9c _exits.c
/home/kremlin/kremtmp/front9port/bin/9c[203]: gcc47: not found

you need to switch to my branch, in the front9port directory:

`hg update kremlin`

and then ./INSTALL

I will merge my changes into the main branch once I know they work on
other OpenBSD computers

one more thing -- you will (currently) need to install gcc package, on
openbsd:

# pkg_add gcc-4.9.4p0 

i will work to make front9port compile on the default openbsd gcc (gcc
4.2.1) to avoid this step

Yes, exactly.

I did this, where I chose delete 'INSTALL.local(?)' and change 'config'.

>> and then ./INSTALL

I did.
I got many lines of warning, however, I got success to compile it.
I got 241 executable files under $PLAN9FRONT/bin.
I'm using standard gcc (included with 6.0 distribution).

> # pkg_add gcc-4.9.4p0 

I didn't do this.

After the compiling of this, acme runs with no problem.

Thank you very much, Ian.

PS. if I pkg_add gcc-4.9.4p0, I DON't have any side effects
on my 6.0 system?

When I compiled this, there were plan9port stuff on my /usr/local/plan9.
Ater I did success, I removed the plan9port package, then tried to
recompile the tree.
I got error like:
9 yacc -d -s bc bc.y
 fatal error:cannot open parser /usr/local/plan9/lib/yaccpar: No such file or directory, /home/okamoto/src/src/src/cmd/bc.y:587

You assumed the plan9port stuff must be there?

I tried, but fails on OpenBSD 6.0.
We have only gcc-4.2.1 without gcc47.

You need to install the gcc port (4.9) in order to build. Also be sure to mount the partition that houses the resulting binaries with the wxallowd flag.

It compiles and seems to run fine on DragonflyBSD, but I had to change
the line in LOCAL.config
from "CC9=gcc47" to "CC9=gcc".

sam runs, acme runs, rc runs..

It's nice.
I've been playing with two BSDs these days to refresh my brain, 
NetBSD and OpenBSD.
I got a personal conclusion that OpenBSD is better because of 
their usage of UTF-8.   It's easier and simpler to deal with
Japanese with OpenBSD.
