NAME
       export - export name space on a connection

SYNOPSIS
       export [ -a ] dir [ file ]

DESCRIPTION
       Export calls sys-export(2) to serve the name space rooted at dir over a
       connection to a 9P (Styx) client.  Export opens the connection  on  the
       given file, or uses the standard input by default.  It returns when the
       client closes the connection.  If the  -a  option  is  given,  however,
       export  starts  an  Inferno  kernel process to serve the name space and
       returns immediately.  Export serves  the	 current  name	space  without
       forking it; changes made to it will be visible to clients.

       Export  starts  serving	9P immediately; it assumes that the connection
       has been authenticated if required.  Export  is	typically  called  via
       listen(1), which can authenticate the connection.

EXAMPLE
       Start a background process to serve the name space on the serial port.

	      export / /dev/eia0 &

       Although	 useful	 when  bootstrapping a system, this is unsafe unless a
       transport protocol is run on the connection.
