Hi, I've been interested in plan 9 for a while now & I've recently installed it on my MacBook Pro (under Parallels) and I've been digging around in it (setting up networking, getting used to acme, etc), but now I want to look into developing programs. Are there any good starting points for th

Lex has three benefits: 1) You don't have to write the lexer directly. 2) What you do have to write is fairly concise. 3) The resulting lexer is fairly efficient. It has two main drawbacks: 4) The input model does not always match your own program's input model, creating a messy interface. 5) O

i don't think that sort of absolutist thinking really works. i used gnu grep (and all the other gnu tools) on utf-8 stuff from the time of the first sam release for unix till i stopped using linux for much development. i never had a problem with g(ed|sed|awk|e?grep) tripping on utf-8 when the lo

utf-8 encoding will "just work" (unless the gnu folk are rearranging characters with the bucky bit set) or if the result depends on knowing the width of a character, e.g. in a) a character class b) matching a single character with ".". for example for a file "fu" with these lines

Also, I am not sure if you can use expressions with big unicode characteres in Unix, last time I looked with sed, you could not. On 2/23/07, Russ Cox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Many unix programs don't use ``extended'' regular expressions by > default. See regexp(7) on Plan 9 or try egrep/gre
