<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    <tt><font size=+1>9</font></tt> <i>cmd</i> [ <i>args</i> ... ]

<p><font size=+1><b>DESCRIPTION     </b></font><br>

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    Because Plan 9 supplies commands with the same name as but different
    behavior than many basic Unix system commands (e.g., <tt><font size=+1>grep</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>sed</font></tt>,
    <tt><font size=+1>mkdir</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>rm</font></tt>), it is not recommended to run with the Plan 9 bin directory
    ahead of the system directories. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>9</i> is a shell script that sets up a Plan 9 environment and runs
    <i>cmd .</i> It sets <tt><font size=+1>$PLAN9</font></tt> and adds <tt><font size=+1>$PLAN9/bin</font></tt> to the beginning of <tt><font size=+1>$PATH</font></tt>
    before running <i>cmd</i>. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    If run with no arguments, <tt><font size=+1>9</font></tt> does not do anything. This is so that
    it can be invoked from <i>sh</i>-style shells using <tt><font size=+1>. 9</font></tt> in order to make
    the current shell start running in the Plan 9 environment.<br>
