I've been using win-based development tools for a couple of years, and
am now about to move onto my first  linux project.  This gives me the
opportunity to dust off sam , 9term, and 9wm.  Years ago, I had them
running on various unices, but I would like to get hold of existing
linux ports if possible.  URLs?  I haven't had much luck with google or
yahoo searches.  Thanks.

Incidentally, there appear no longer to be sam downloads on
bell-labs.com, other than as part of the plan9 distribution.  seanq's
win32 port is not to be seen.

Try http://www.freshmeat.net. Also, http://www.plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9dist.

I downloaded Sean's win32 port a few months ago. You can always send him email:
seanq@lucent.com.

Sorrry for the auto-followup, but gregoire@inrs-telecom.uquebec.ca
pointed out that sam is indeed still available in netlib.  I can only
say that the searches I had tried on bell-labs.com did not show sam.

I'm worried about version skew.  The current Plan 9 version of sam uses
code from acme.  At least three people, including me, have done unix
ports.   Right now, I have no clue what version any particular archive
site will be handing out.  We really ought to converge on something.

9term appears to have been withdrawn, because the
package is in need of a new maintainer:

I remember when I first started looking for the
same p9-4-linux stuff a number of years back
that the FreeBSD people had a more complete and
more up-to-date collection in their ports
section than any of the Linux dists (Debian was
the only one that came close).

I once bought a Linux magazine with a cover
proclaiming the issue was devoted to the
"Internationalization of Linux".  Inside were
about ten articles on emacs and how someday it
was going to display UTF-8 or some such. They
had never even heard of 9term/sam/wily/etc.

But I can't use emacs because I only have a
10-Gig Hard Drive . . .                  :-)

Do not forget acme (under Inferno, or as wily, for unix), 9menu, rc and tcs.

> URLs?

The ones I have that freshmeat.org is unlikely to know about:

www.vitanuova.com
