I think there where two reported issues with fossil. On was a bug in ephermerial shapshots which could cause it to crash, this was fixed about 10 years ago but did exist for an embarassingly long time. The other was a design decision rather than a bug which was not well communicated. Fossil was

Hello all, Klong mail incoming. I hope my English is ok and I don't tread on other's toes.) from my perspective it looks like this: There are multiple Plan 9 forks kor distributions). They all are philosophically and technically different, but they still share patches (even if many people

Re: [9fans] p9f mention of 9front

I wonder if this could be copied from how plan9port behaves on macOS for instance. Using a single tap and then toggling/chording using alt and command keys. Maybe on a multi-touch input the distance of the 2nd and 3rd finger could help to identify which modifier/button it translates to.

Re: [9fans] p9f mention of 9front

I don't think the touchscreen technology has figured out how to distinguish between fingers yet. The rio environment would need to identify if you were using finger 1, 2 or 3 to tap on something so it would know if it was to move or resize the window, which context menu to open, etc...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anyone had any issues with 9legacy taking functionality from 9front, vice versa. So both contain parts of each other anyway. How is 9legacy "more Plan 9", but 9front isn't at all, then? Makes no sense to me. Would a mention of a practical
