What text editing features from vim do you miss in Acme?




Re: [9fans] libframe Go port

2015-10-11 Thread Giles Hutton
Initially my main complaint was simply the heavy use of the mouse; it felt
jarring to have to move my hand off home row. However, I've now just
chalked that up to inexperience with acme.
Right now I actually can't think of anything I particularly miss about vim
text editing, which I guess is why I've dropped the idea.

[9fans] Web Gardens

2015-10-11 Thread Andrew Simmons
As a diversion from the discussion of the existential essence of Javascript, 
could I ask the group for a view on the meaning of the term "Web Garden"? I was 
just asked about this in a job interview. Supplementary question - how would 
you implement a Web Garden in Plan9?

if it's the term used by IIS, i think it refers to how a server
handles web requests: (a) one process handling all requests -- i.e.
in a select() loop -- or (b) a process pool, with each process
handling one request.  the latter is a "web garden" model.

plan9's httpd starts a proc for each new request.
