+ Plan 9 from User Space (aka plan9port) + is a port of many Plan 9 programs from their native + Plan 9 + environment to Unix-like operating systems. + +
+ supported systems + +
+
+ Linux (x86 and PowerPC), + FreeBSD (x86), + Mac OS X (Power PC), + SunOS (Sparc). +

+ acknowledgements + +
+
+ + Most obviously, plan9port derives from + Plan 9 from Bell Labs + and would not exist without the work of the Plan 9 team over the + past many years. + +
+ + Many people have provided help, + ported programs, written bug reports, + sent useful patches, and gotten plan9port running on new + operating systems. A few have done far more than their fair share. + +
+ + Rob Pike suggested the original X11 port of libdraw years ago, + as part of drawterm, and strongly encouraged the Mac OS X work. + He has also been a consistent source of good ideas to hide + the ugliness of modern Unix. + +
+ + William Josephson handled + troff(1) + (with Taj Khattra) and many of + the supporting programs. He also inspired the recent thread library + clean-up and has ported a handful of applications. + +
+ + Andrey Mirtchovski and Axel Belinfante have done significant + work dealing with X11 corner cases and fine-tuning + rio(1). + Axel never tires of finding bugs in the SunOS port. + +
+ + Eric Van Hensbergen brought the system up on Linux/PowerPC. + +
+ + Thanks to all. + +
