  1. Been playing with the Acme editor from #plan9port. Very much out of my comfort zone (vi-like editors) but so far I quite like it. My goal is to install #9front on my old Thinkpad T430 and use it for writing in my bedroom once I've properly gotten to grips with the editor. Seems like a solid choice of OS for reducing distractions and I find a lot of the ideas behind #plan9 really appealing.

    General use daily driver is – and will remain – #openbsd, of course.

  2. so i have been learning #sam and #acme properly and oh my god. acme is the best editor i have ever used. i love the fact that it really is an os interface in its own right. i have been completely underutilising it. i now have a setup on my second desktop at all times.

    sam just seems like ed on steroids with a lot of the acme benefits of the mouse interface.

    i am using acme for actual work or writing and i use sam for quick edits or config files.

  7. Because I had forgotten since the last time I had to figure this out: to get plan9port compiling on linux mint (and likely others), ‘apt install libx11-dev libxt-dev libxext-dev libfreetype-dev libfontconfig-dev’ to resolve missing dependencies.

  8. @notptr

    Can you share some hints how to change background color in acme under #plan9port.

  9. Ok I think this is going to be the closes to match my emacs theme

  10. Trying to get acme to have similar colors as my emacs. I think to learn how allocimagemix works

    #plan9 #plan9port #emacs

    [ #plan9 has the idiomatic draw(3) / libdraw doesn't it - but I'm refering to #plan9port on openbsd ]

  12. I am back on my bullshit! I’ve been using #Acme again and it’s refreshing how quickly I can set up a working space of directories, shells, documentation and several documents. #Plan9Port

  13. #Plan9port finally packaged for #Guix for real.

    The version I had on Git last night was the wrong one, but now I've fixed it. I'll still have to port over my scripts, but now I can finally use #Acme on Guix SD.
