[gopher] FreeArchie

Greetings.

Does anyone on the list still have the FreeArchie[0] source
lying around? The FTP server specified does not have the
source anymore. It would be interesting to see how the search
on the Internet really evolved.

Sincerely,

Christoph Lohmann

[gopher] GopherBrowse (fwd)

Updates for our iOS users.

----- Forwarded message from Richard Smith -----

Hi,

Just a quick one; 1.0.2 was just accepted (after a rejection 30 mins prior for using a private API ;-)
Features include:

* downloading of unsupported files
* telnet link following with the appropriate telnet:// compatible app (iSSH works)
* basic search in text files (to be improved)
* iPhone support
* German localisation (because I can speak German)

* some great bug fixes 
  - mp3 crashing when file too small
  - scaling of menus; especially large ones like twitter

Image problems still not sorted, but I've been working on it.

I did post to the list, but it seems to be moderated, so I got bounced - anyway, it'll be available in a few hours hopefully.

enjoy
Richard

[gopher] Gopher Proxy & Archive robots.txt

The gopher proxy & archive ( http://gopher-project:gpa-test-675-jeC/7hstvd8hutO8jFa5Qw@public.gmane.orgearth.com/ ) should now pay attention to robots.txt exclusion rules. I haven't tested this extensively, but it seems to work. Does anybody know of any gopher pages that have been blocked by robots.txt so I can test?

Also, the spider will begin crawling gopherspace shortly.

[gopher] Gopher! (fwd)

First, there is now Gopher on iOS -- GopherBrowse is available from the
Apple Store. It is 99 cents, to defray the Apple tax presumably, but it is
a very nice client and integrates very well with the iPad. It does not do
image scaling quite right, and can't download or run Telnet, but other than
that the basics are covered and it supports hURLs and search servers.

I also was notified about a new Gopher server platform in Java with some
interesting features:

----- Forwarded message from Richard -----

From: Richard <richard@...>
Subject: Gopher!

Hi, I'm the same guy who tweeted you about making a gopher server in Java.

I got no download available atm, but here's git:
https://github.com/richardg867/jgopherd
It's got all Buck features except globbing and adds HTTP support (try
http://69.55.132.48:70) and j-moles, which are java jars coded
specifically to be ran like a mole.

Here's what I did using j-moles:
gopher://69.55.132.48/1/reddit.jar
gopher://69.55.132.48/1/imgur.jar
If you want to add them to fun'n'games, that'd be nice, but mind the
possible but rare slowness, it's running on a cheap VPS I got off a
friend. The imgur mole cooperates with the reddit one since all imgur
gallery pics have a reddit post associated with them.

[gopher] WWW - The Libwww Line Mode Browser

http://www.w3.org/LineMode/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libwww

I  was recently  having a  play with  this and  though it  did support
gopher the  support was somewhat  broken, especially in regard  to the
display  of information  lines (not  starting  a new  line after  each
information line).   Writing a  patch to  fix this  is well  beyond my
limited  capabilities (I  just about  manage to  use shell-scripts  as
functioning moles) but I thought I'd mention it and throw it out there
in the hope  that someone with the skill and  time might be interested
in trying to fix it.

[gopher] gopherproject.org

Hi folks,

I currently own the gopherproject.org domain.  My involvement in Gopher 
stuff has been pretty much nil over the last few years.  The domain is 
up for renewal in 60 days, and I'm wondering if anyone here would like 
to give it a better, more active home?

[gopher] interfacing a USB temperature sensor to gopherspace

This is, in fact, a very handy way to remotely monitor my server room.

Indeed, thunderbird.

It has now updated to 7.0 and still works.
http://alistairtesting.no-ip.org/gopher.jpg

It is an old profile from back on Thunderbird 2 or possible 1.5

I shall test it with a clean profile and see if that breaks it.

[gopher] Overbite Chrome 1.0.2

Overbite Chrome 1.0.2 is released. This fixes a glitch with later Chromes
where the extension did not properly intercept the gopher:// string in the
omnibox, and adds some new default proxies to the options window, including
Brian's @ pongonova and gopherproxy.org.

	http://gopher.floodgap.com/overbite/
	gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/1/overbite/

Also, I have confirmed that OverbiteFF is still compatible with Firefox 9
and 10, at least so far.
