Subject: WANTED: Information about rc
Date: Thu, 29 Apr 1993 04:16:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <648.9304290816@rocannon.harlqn.co.uk> (raw)

I heard about rc a while back on comp.unix.shell when someone wrote
about its `minimalist approach'.  Being a minimalist myself I was
instantly attracted and sought it out.  I now use it as my main shell
and am very pleased.

When I ftp'd the source I also received some documents about Plan-9,
and something explaining the rc rationale.  However, in general I find
the background of rc mysterious.

If someone who knows is willing to write to me and tell me about
Plan-9, rc, etc. I'd be grateful.  I'd also be pleased to hear from
other rc users.

By the way, there is an rc mailing list which can be subscribed to by
mailing rc-request@archone.tamu.edu.

I'll post a summary of responses by mail in comp.unix.shell and on the
rc mailing list.

Thanks.
