apparently you haven't read any of my mails or the man pages, because what plumb does has little relation to the plan9 plumber - and it does it on linux where these facilities are unavailable anyway. furthermore, plumbnet's functionality is not easily reproducible with either socat or similar tools (this is why i wrote it in the first place).
