This is my patched version of the port of many Plan 9 libraries and programs to Unix.

See https://github.com/9fans/plan9port/compare/master...sminez:master for details of the current diff from the main repo.

Modifications

• Added custom color scheme via config.h
• Default font is Terminess Nerd Font
• Up and down arrow keys move the cursor, not scroll the page
• Tabexpand command for converting \t to spaces (controlled by tabstop)
• Don't show dot-files in directory listings

Bindings

Further bindings need to be defined in the switch statement beginning src/cmd/acme/text.c:687

• Ctrl
  • c: copy
  • x: cut
  • v: paste
  • z: undo
  • r: redo
  • s: save
  • e: move to end of line
  • a: move to begining of line
  • f: filename completion
  • u: kill line
  • w: kill word (backwords)

Installation

To install, run ./INSTALL. It builds mk and then uses mk to run the rest of the installation.

For more details, see install(1), at install.txt in this directory and at https://9fans.github.io/plan9port/man/man1/install.html.

Documentation

See https://9fans.github.io/plan9port/man/ for more documentation. (Documentation is also in this tree, but you need to run a successful install first. After that, "9 man 1 intro".)

Intro(1) contains a list of man pages that describe new features or differences from Plan 9.
