I am sure there are but how are they handled? ls(1) in Plan9 reports everything. There are no 'hidden' files according to the traditional UNIX meaning. The convention for config files is to place them under $home/lib. But there are so few of these it's not really an issue. Most users get away with lib/profile and lib/plumbing and don't require anything else. --lyndon -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
