Well, finally, I have been able to use this thing for a whole
day^H^H^H testing period without seeing it crash or corrupt one of my
files.

At http://lsub.org/ls/octopus.html you may find links to omero.src.tgz
and to omero.dis.tgz Also at /n/sources/contrib/nemo/octopus

There are man pages included and a readme detailing how to run it.
(http://lsub.org/sys/oman has the entire man for the octopus).
olive(1) contains all the information needed to learn to use this
weird thing, although you might need to refer to Plan 9's sam(1) or
its tutorial regarding the command language.

I wouldn't use it other than to test and try it.  It might eat your
files.  I'll be using it instead of Plan B's omero from now on and
it's likely that most of the bugs remaining will bite me in the near
future.

To avoid adding noise to the list, I'll be updating the distribution
in the web and sources but I wont send further announces regarding
this thing.

BTW, this time I'm using charon's fonts and I wont believe that it
crashes for you due to fonts (it will do for all other things,
probably).

thanks in advance for any stack dump :)
