Sorry to hear you think like that. I've been using Plan9 for about 10
years as my day to day work environment for non-Plan9 based coding, I
can't remember anything that hasn't worked aside from kit without
drivers.
Would you be willing to elaborate about your working setups as far as
non-Plan9 based coding is
concerned.
I edit text, sometimes I run programs over it and it is changed, I write
these programs. The environment of Plan9 is very much suited to this
activity. I use it to control the activities of the Windows / Linux /
*BSD / OSX machines in my empire.
I connect them together with 9p tunnelled over ssh, Plan9 <> Plan9, SMB,
bit of ftp, AoE. I jump around through firewalls and other tunnels all
for the precious 9p, the Queen of Kings.
I sit at a non Plan9 terminal and wonder how the savages manage.
