The few bits i've read about plan9 was that sort of thing, everything is a file. I imagine authentication causes some probs.
So ftpfs is a bit like sshfs. imagine a web protocol like that, [/code]less www.linuxbbq.org[/code] cp and mv websites around that would be fun.

So another 9front scrot with some sweet little cli apps: colors, memory, topng, ups/fedex/usps (type one of the three plus the tracking number, get an update!), weather (type 'weather' plus nearest airport three-letter code, get weather update), ps. There's lots of great little tools like this, pretty cool.
