See https://plan9port-review.googlesource.com/c/plan9/+/1470 for discussion of the approach, especially Michael Stapleberg's comment: Note that chromium, firefox and others have tried this and then switched to using the Xft.dpi X resource, see e.g. https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/chrome/browser/ui/libgtk2ui/gtk2_ui.cc and especially http://sources.debian.net/src/gnome-settings-daemon/3.18.2-1/plugins/xsettings/gsd-xsettings-manager.c/?hl=824#L80 for some anecdata about why this approach doesn’t work out. The Xft.dpi resource is being set accurately by desktop environments (GNOME, KDE, …) and can easily be changed by users of niche window managers by editing ~/.Xresources. I suggest we check only Xft.dpi, without considering the DPI environment variable or the monitor width/height. |

This is a port of many Plan 9 libraries and programs to Unix.
Installation
To install, run ./INSTALL. It builds mk and then uses mk to run the rest of the installation.
For more details, see install(1), at install.txt in this directory and at https://9fans.github.io/plan9port/man/man1/install.html.
Documentation
See https://9fans.github.io/plan9port/man/ for more documentation. (Documentation is also in this tree, but you need to run a successful install first. After that, "9 man 1 intro".)
Intro(1) contains a list of man pages that describe new features or differences from Plan 9.
Helping out
If you'd like to help out, great! The TODO file contains a small list.
If you port this code to other architectures, please share your changes so others can benefit.
Git
You can use Git to keep your local copy up-to-date as we make changes and fix bugs. See the git(1) man page here ("9 man git") for details on using Git.
