 # Notes/todo

+ * 9pex: to allow "escaping the root" by following symlinks you have to pass `-e` option

  * 9pex: chrooting with musl makes `realpath` not work as it requires /proc to be mounted, get rid of `realpath`?

  * 9gc: you can run it in termux on Android like so: `rlwrap -a'XXXXXXwth' -s 0 -t dumb 9gc -e NICKNAME`
