Where is acme's file interface located? about plan9port HOT 2 CLOSED

If you have plan9port you have namespace:

$ namespace
/tmp/ns.something.:0

This is where all 9p connections will store their socket. If you start plumber you'll also see it there:

$ ls $(namespace)
acme=
plumb=

If you remain on plan9 tools, you might not actually need that. you can use 9p to list/read/files in your scripts/applications. For instance to read the content of the first window in acme:

$ 9p read acme/1/data

The only case you might need the path is if you want to mount it, in that case all you need to remember is that namespace gives the full path so:

$ 9 mount $(namespace)/acme ~/acme

is enough
