actually just recently updated my 9menu from 1.8 (released 6/1/04) to 1.9 (released 6/25/15) [0]. Apparently took Mr. Robbins 11 years to fix some compile warnings HA.
It came as a shar. I was dumbfounded for a moment as I had never heard of a shell archive. pretty cool tech actually. I've been into UNIX and such for over five years and had never even come across one. Also came across Generic Window Manager during that time as well, which I had never heard of before. Further reading: [1] and [2].

- ams6110 11y agoYou would have known about shell archives if you'd been on usenet back in the day. Commonly used in news (and in email as well), in the days before MIME attachments.
- jd3 11y agointeresting. I check in on usenet every once in awhile, but mostly just on mozilla/eternal september news servers (primarily for seamonkey/OS X/dr. who-related stuff). Interesting tid-bit. thanks for clearing that up.
