This is my personal plan9port configuration. It should work in all platforms supported by plan9port. To install just do: $ cd $HOME $ git clone https://github.com/xmonk/p9p.git .p9p Then add the following to your .bashrc: if [ -d $HOME/.p9p ]; then . $HOME/.p9p/rc fi $ . $HOME/.bashrc $ ./.p9p/install # Optional. If you're using macOS the install script will install Acme.app and Sam.app in $HOME/Applications. It will download and install a few useful tools from github.com.
