Ignacio Torres<a href="https://mastodon.social/@idaho06" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@idaho06</a> The <a href="https://social.xin.cat/tags/plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plan9</a> aesthetic makes a lot of sense when you check the age of its authors on the early 90s. 😁

Jochem KossenIt also made me curious about other text editors which don't require configuration, and don't tempt users to write hundreds of lines of configuration, but still offer powerful functionality.Any recommendations for open source, opinionated, lightweight, UTF-8 supporting editors that don't break?<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/plaintext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plaintext</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/editor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#editor</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plan9</a>

Using text itself as commands / functionality, very interesting.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/plaintext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plaintext</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/editor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#editor</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plan9</a>

icoonAs an excercice on <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plan9</a> I am trying to write a basic text editor in C. Sofar I can open a file and read it into a biobuffer, then print it to the console by writing to /dev/cons file. That works fine. Now I am struggling to clear the console before writing, so that I have only the intended text, which I can edit and then save by reading /dev/cons and saving it to the original text file. Not sure if this makes send nor if this is the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plan9</a> way of coding. Any suggestions?

EK :a_openbsd:I am starting to think that basically <a href="https://merveilles.town/@prahou" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@prahou</a> 's artwork is the glue that binds the BSD community together; both the <a href="https://exquisite.social/tags/Plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Plan9</a> and the <a href="https://exquisite.social/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenBSD</a> website feature his stuff on the frontpage.

SpookThinking about my coworker's (a guy in his late fifties who had a passing experience with <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.m68k.church/tag/plan9" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Plan9</a> way back in the day) reaction when I told him about <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.m68k.church/tag/9front" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#9front</a>. >Huh, it has to be a mental illness. In a good way, mind you, but still a mental illness.

Delta Chat<a href="https://framapiaf.org/@debacle" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@debacle</a> that's about right! As to servers/relays: there are a lot of well working alternative stacks -- <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/chatmail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#chatmail</a> core even runs with some <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Plan9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Plan9</a> mail server stack apart from the many classic email server implementations. Replacing Rust Core is possible but considerable work. Beating its maturity and cross-platform portability would require a serious effort. Not impossible, though. FWIW most other messenger projects (<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Signal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Signal</a>, <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#matrix</a>, etc.) are trying to move towards Rust.
