and Java doesn’t mind running in simple terminals so I can can use tribblix over ssh and work with the spots without using the terminal emulator

And tribblix is nice and modern and I can use sshfs and build a namespace so I can edit files on 9 and compile/deploy with tribblix

@penny do you issue commands over ssh?
Show threadPennyMar 17
@notptr yeah I ssh in load my .profile and then do rc -i (tribblix actually ships plan9port !)

@notptr and you’ll find things very convenient if you mount unix paths exactly as they are on the target host and start a subrio/sublola, e.g. file completion works

@penny ok cool
