I know this isn't a tech support forum, but in a fit of lunacy I figured I'd give Acme a try last night (the Acme-SAC version) and after using it for an hour of so I can't even figure out how to open a text file (it seems like it has its own virtual directory structure that I can't seem to navigate out of). Anybody here successfully using Acme for coding?

windows acme-sac is my day to day programming environment. the host file system is available at /n/C and /n/D (/n/local on linux and os x).

Thank you, that works. I felt like an idiot for not being able to figure out how to actually navigate to my filesystem.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yes, it happens. Though I'm probably not the best example- I can't say I ever really had much use for shiny. For the longest time I had a crappy K5 based system with 64Mb of RAM running Slackware when all my friends had Pentium 2's and whatever OS ran Quake at the time. Oh, and I used a pizza box for the "case". Whatever works for what you're doing. I will admit though, I lusted over an SGI O2.

How did you ventilate the box, aren't pizza boxes designed to insulate?

The motherboard was inside with the fan sticking out a hole I cut in the top. The PSU and disks were sitting naked on top.
