31 <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

33     Because Plan 9 supplies commands with the same name as but different

34     behavior than many basic Unix system commands (e.g., <tt><font size=+1>grep</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>sed</font></tt>,

35     <tt><font size=+1>mkdir</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>rm</font></tt>), it is not recommended to run with the Plan 9 bin directory

36     ahead of the system directories. 

37     <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>

39     <i>9</i> is a shell script that sets up a Plan 9 environment and runs

40     <i>cmd .</i> It sets <tt><font size=+1>$PLAN9</font></tt> and adds <tt><font size=+1>$PLAN9/bin</font></tt> to the beginning of <tt><font size=+1>$PATH</font></tt>

41     before running <i>cmd</i>. 

42     <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>

44     If run with no arguments, <tt><font size=+1>9</font></tt> does not do anything. This is so that

45     it can be invoked from <i>sh</i>-style shells using <tt><font size=+1>. 9</font></tt> in order to make

46     the current shell start running in the Plan 9 environment.<br>
