Plan 9 from Bell Labs is a new distributed OS from the research
group that created Unix & C & C++ & . . . It uses Unicode and
includes a version of Lex. I think the Lex handles Unicode, but
I'm not certain.


Details & FTPable binary-only PC Version at http://plan9.att.com
FAQ at http://www.ecf.toronto.edu/plan9/plan9faq.html


Complete OS for PC >=386, MIPS, SPARC & 680x0 with source on CD
is $350 US. License restricts you to educational or research use,
but it is a site license; you can use it on any machine in your
organisation.
