Re: [9front] Tips or guides to start programming on 9front?

[adventures in9 <adventuresin9@gmail.com>]

This book is a solid intro to programming in a Plan 9 environment.

http://doc.cat-v.org/plan_9/9.intro.pdf

Covers some basic system libraries, how the compilers and linkers
work, touches on using acid for debugging, and a little graphical
stuff.

Besides the man pages and the papers in /sys/doc, the source code
itself is really good.
