Plan B User's Manual

This is the first (beta) version of Plan B 4rd edition. Plan B is a derivative of Plan 9. Most of the system is taken verbatim from Plan 9. In fact, Plan B now runs as a set of Plan 9 user programs. Therefore, the system includes most of the Plan 9 commands, system calls, and library functions. However, the resulting system is very different from a Plan 9 installation. It includes technology from both Plan 9 4th edition and Plan B 2nd and 3rd edition.
