Drawterm D1296625115 Asl #Drawterm(8) is not a Plan 9 program. It is a program that users of #non-Plan 9 systems can use to establish graphical cpu(1) connections #with Plan 9 CPU servers. Just as a real Plan 9 terminal does, #drawterm serves its local name space as well as some devices (the #keyboard, mouse, and screen) to a remote CPU server, which mounts #this name space on /mnt/term and starts a shell. Typically, either #explicitly or via the profile, one uses the shell to start rio(1). # #DOWNLOAD # #To get the latest source for drawterm from a system with Mercurial: # #! $ hg clone http://code.swtch.com/drawterm # #In the Plan 9 distribution: [/sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/ | #http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/plan9/sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/] #(sometimes out of date) # #For more information and binaries for various systems see: #[http://swtch.com/drawterm/] # #NOTES # #When drawterm-linux starts you might well see an error message like #this : cpu: failed to chdir to $dir where $dir is, in fact, pwd on #your linux box. I haven't looked very far to find out where that #happens because I added fn drawterm {@{cd /; drawterm-linux $* }} to #$home/.rcrc and cd to the top of lib/profile to put me in $home on #startup. # #To access a Plan 9 cpu(1) server behind a packet filter, you need to #allow access to the following ports: 17010, 17013 and 567 (to the #auth(8) server). # #SEE ALSO # #[Drawterm to your terminal], drawterm(8), #[http://swtch.com/drawterm/] #
