I use this a lot. My text editor (octopus) runs in it. Inferno is pretty interesting and very easy to code on, however the programming model takes getting used to.

I never did get the chance to use Octopus for any length of time, it always looked a bit over complicated. I guess it didn't help that the talks I saw on it were Spanish people taking in English. Not all of the subtlety came across.

But I think it was Francisco that came up with "It's not Universal, it's not Serial and it's not a Bus", I always liked that one.

Which editor do you use?

Octopus. It's an lsub research thing.

what's an lsub ?
