Acme can be used as a mail and news reader, or as a frontend to wikifs. These applications are made possible by external components interacting with acme through its file system interface. Rob Pike has mentioned that the name "Acme" was suggested to him by Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller during a movie night at Times Square when he asked for a suitable name for a text editor that does "everything".
Ports
A port to the Inferno operating system is part of Inferno's default distribution. Inferno can run as an application on top of other operating systems, allowing Inferno's port of acme to be used on most operating systems, including Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux. A project called acme: stand alone complex intends to make acme run as a standalone application on the host operating system.
A plain text file uses a character encoding such as UTF-8 or ASCII to represent numbers, letters, and symbols. The only non-printing characters in the file that can be used to format the text are newline, tab, and formfeed. Plain text files are often displayed using a monospace font so horizontal alignment and columnar formatting is sometimes done using space characters.
Word processor documents are generally stored in a binary format to allow for localization and formatted text, such as boldface, italics and multiple fonts, and to be structured into columns and tables.
Acme was built in Seattle in 1899 on the Lake Washington shore. The builders were Gustavus V. Johnson (1845-1926) & Son.
Gustavus V. Johnson was a Civil War veteran, who had been born in Clayton County, New York and who had established a boat building business on Lake Minnetonka in Minnesota. He and his son Mark ran one of the earliest boatyards on Lake Washington (established 1888). In addition to Acme, they built vessels such as L.T. Haas and City of Renton.
Acme was built of wood and was 60ft (18.29m) long, with a beam of 11.5ft (3.51m) and depth of hold of 3ft (0.91m). The overall size of the vessel was 31 gross and 21 registered tons. The official U.S. registry number was 107460.Acme has been described as a tug.
Operation
Acme was operated between Leschi and Madison parks and Bothell, Washington by N.C. Peterson. The vessel was used to service Leschi and Madison parks for one year, and thereafter being sold to the Bothell Transportation Company for use on the Bothell run.Acme was also under the ownership of John L. Anderson, one of the most important figures in steamboat navigation on Lake Washington. In 1906, Acme was making twice-daily trips from Madison Park to Bothell, a distance of 22 miles (35km) from Seattle.
Acme has 4 Tableau Stacks of 1 card each, and they build down in suit. There are 4 Foundations that build up in suit. The Reserve Pile contains 13 cards which can be played onto the Foundations or Tableau Stacks. The deck turns up 1 card at a time.
Rules
Only the top card of a Tableau stack can be moved. These cards can be moved to a Foundation or onto another Tableau stack. The Tableau builds down in suit, and the Foundations build up in suit. Cards from the Reserve automatically fill empty spaces. Any card can fill empty Tableau spaces after the Reserve is empty. There is only one redeal allowed in this game, so only 2 passes through the Deck are allowed.
Tips & Strategies
Rather than using the cards from the deck, try to use all of the reserve cards first. Only two passes are allowed, so use the deck wisely.
Acme II
In this variation, whole tableaux piles can be moved rather than just the top card.
TEXT is the band founded by Kristofer Steen, David Sandström, Fredrik Bäckström and Jon F Brännström. All, except Bäckström, were ex-members of hardcore band Refused. Stylistically, they have little in common with Refused. Their debut album, Text, is a mix of spoken word, music of various styles, and ambient sound effects, often producing an ethereal, avant-garde sound. Apart from the three "Tableau" tracks (which are one piece, split up across the album), each track could be described as fitting into a different genre. In 2008, a second album, Vital Signs, was released. Yet again the style of music is far from Refused and the first Text album. Only Fredrik Bäckström and Jon F Brännström appear on this album.
The record came out on Demonbox Recordings in Sweden and on Buddyhead in America and the rest of the world. Text – "Text" was Buddyhead #4 and considered a building block in what is now a very successfully diverse indie-boutique-label run by music journalist Travis Keller. Text announced a US tour the year after the record was released on Buddyhead but due to conflicts with International Noise Conspiracy tours, it was cancelled.
In literary theory, a text is any object that can be "read," whether this object is a work of literature, a street sign, an arrangement of buildings on a city block, or styles of clothing. It is a coherent set of signs that transmits some kind of informative message. This set of symbols is considered in terms of the informative message's content, rather than in terms of its physical form or the medium in which it is represented.
Within the field of literary criticism, "text" also refers to the original information content of a particular piece of writing; that is, the "text" of a work is that primal symbolic arrangement of letters as originally composed, apart from later alterations, deterioration, commentary, translations, paratext, etc. Therefore, when literary criticism is concerned with the determination of a "text," it is concerned with the distinguishing of the original information content from whatever has been added to or subtracted from that content as it appears in a given textual document (that is, a physical representation of text).

Acme - auto-indent feature
The auto-indent feature is useful for dealing with source code files and other files with indenting by repeating the indent of the previous line. I find this to be a really helpful feature when doing development work. I discovered it by reviewing the acme manual page, which is viewable and navigable in acme itself, which is another sub-topic.

Acme - Beyond the pipe operator
The Acme editor from plan9 has a pipe-ish operator that allows you to send selections in your windows to a Unix/Plan9 command and replaces the contents with the output from that command. What if you don't want to destroy your selection and instead use the command as a filter for other purposes? Also, how can I get the output from a command to put information into my file? This video attempts to cover the other two redirection operators and how they might be used.
