this breaks the sample from the seconds manpage, and overall
produces funky results. this needs alot more testing.

Redo date handling in libc almost entirely. This allows
handling dates and times from outside your timezones,
fixes timezone loading in multithreaded applications,
and allows parsing and formatting using custom format
strings.
As a test of the APIs, we replace the formatting code in
seconds(1), shrinking it massively.
The last commit missed a few removals, and made it
unnecessarily hard to do an update.

Added a ver= field to the filter to distinguish the ip version.
By default, a filter is parsed as ipv6, and after parsing
proto, src and dst fields are converted to ipv4. When no
ver= field is specified, a ip version filter is implicitely
added and both protocols are parsed.
This change also gets rid of the fast compare types as the
filed might not be aligned correctly in the packet.
This also fixes the ifc= filter, as we have to check any
local address.
The new command marks the target window as a scratch window -- a window
whose state cannot be "dirtied" by changes made to its body, therefore
avoiding warnings about unsaved changes when deleting the window or
exiting acme.
Existing examples of scratch windows are error, directory, and guide
windows, whose scratchness is set internally.
With the new command users and programs alike can create their own
scratch windows. This is put to use in acme's own win(1).
This makes the flagfmt parser more robust and accepting
a looser input language — namely by allowing whitespace
around specifier fields and ignoring any empty fields.
Long flagfmts can thus be pleasingly displayed:
flagfmt='
a, b, c, C:cache,
m:mtpt mountpoint,
s:srvn srvname'
Fix inconsistencies between programs and their usage
messages, correct instances where information seems
to be missing or lost. This includes missing arguments,
making usage consistent with manuals, and so on.
with the latest changes to shr(3), we can use ORCLOSE on
the control file to get the mount in the share automatically
removed when the server exits or something goes wrong during
postsharesrv().
do not expose postfd() and sharefd() functions. they where
undocumented and leak the control file descriptors.
with the -s flag, we should read 9P messages from
standard *INPUT* (fd 0) and write responses to
standard *OUTPUT* (fd 1).
before these servers where reading from fd 1,
assuming they where both the same files.
it is unclear how Srv.nopipe flag should work inside
postmountserv(). if a server wants to serve on stdio
descriptors, he can just call srv() after initializing
Srv.infd and Srv.outfd.
The Srv.leavefdsopen hack can be removed now that acme
win has been fixed.
the console command runs a command or the system shell under
a new instance of kbdfs, optionally providing a serial console
when $console environment variable is set.
this is a reimplementation of infernos os(1) command, which
allows running commands in the underhying host operating
system when inferno runs in hosted mode (emu). but unlike
inferno, we want to use it to run commands on the client
side of a inferno or drawterm session from the plan9 cpu
server, so it defaults to /mnt/term/cmd for the mountpoint.

I needed to convert the RSA private key that was laying around in
secstore into a format understood by UNIX® tools like SSH.
With asn12rsa(8) we can go from the ASN.1/DER to Plan 9 format, but not
back - so I wrote the libsec function asn1encodeRSApriv(2) and used it in
rsa2asn1(8) by adding the -a flag which causes the full private key to be
encoded and output.
C99 comments have been the default in compilers for something like 20 years
now. This means we don't need to remember to turn it on when porting software,
and gets rid of cryptic errors about unterminated character constants when
someone writes something like:
// Didn't need to...
We still accept the flag to avoid breaking mkfiles, but we do nothing with it.
This also removes the documentation, since the option does nothing now.
we want to accept V4 subnets in CIDR notation consistently which
means we need to interpret the mask in context of the IP address.
so parseipmask() now has an additional v4 flag argument which
offsets the prefixlength by 96 so a /24 will be interpreted
as a /120.
parseipandmask() is the new function which handles this automatically
depending on the ip address type.
v4parsecidr() is now obsolete.
"I sometimes find myself on either slow or data-capped network links where downloading images isn't ideal. Attached is a simple patch to mothra that changes the 'k' command to not only remove already-downloaded images from a page, but also toggle a state such that mothra won't attempt to download images on future visited sites until 'k' is toggled again. This also adds a '-k' flag to mothra which enables the flag at startup." --Jeremy O'Brien<neutral@fastmail.com> on 9fans
- fix overwriting channel 10 with channel 9
- fix using channel volume instead of last volume when setting note
(fixes d_doom and others)
- remove useless state
