the short answer is no.

abaco does look and feel like acme, but it is a seperate program that
must manage windows and subprocs (like win). what would be idea is to
have a small program like win that reads pages from webfs. it should be
possible to do without reimplementing any of that stuff.

the interesting part of how to do this i conviently swept under the rug.
maybe /mnt/acme/$winid/layout.

btw, abaco's design is very good. it does a really nice job of getting to the
point without reams of code.

I smell a 'graphical acme'-discussion. Not that I want you to stop, no, rather the other way round ;-)

I did not yet saw a programme which let's you manipulate pictures, btw. Oh, and I always wanted to write a dae for plan9 (digital audio editor).

Some GUIs I can come up with in my mind let the user select regions in the presented graph/picture - such a mechanism is needed, imho.

just to clarify, i saw a screenshot of something that looked like acme with a
debugger in it, used in inferno.

You mean an 'Acid', but one that does more than Acid? Oh cool, mail it to the list in case you find it :)

do you recall if the 'kill current process' icon was a little too graphic?

[9fans] small devices

this talk of embedded devices reminds me that
we've got a kencc compiler and a little library for the atmel avr series.
if anyone is interested, let me know, and i'll bundle it up.
hint: it's called za/zc/zl because it's the last architecture you'd choose to use;
but berkeley popularised it, so what do i know?

Is there a port for these: http://gumstix.com/products.html? Or one
that would be a good place to start?
I'd even be happy with an inferno port.

If it will work on my SDK-200, I'll buy it :-)

Funny architecture, maybe, but it rocks. Have you been following the
AVR-GCC (here goes me swearing in public) mailing list?

Except, of course, AVR-GCC doesn't fit in a Plan 9 box :-(
