Hey geminauts,
I was able to fix bollux this evening with possibly the smallest diffever. I changed a '/' to ':'.
Anyway, I'm definitely going to test my software before I release itfrom now on. So try it, let me know what you think!
(I wrote a post about it on my nilog as well:=

Well, it took me a little longer than a weekend but I got it done!
I'm proud to announce the release of *bollux*, a Gemini browser written
in bash:
https://git.sr.ht/~acdw/bollux
gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/~acdw/bollux (just the README)
It requires stuff most Linux users should have, like gawk
(possibly could use awk), dd, a recent version of bash, etc.
As of this release, bollux can
- navigate to gemini urls
- display text/* documents, and prettify text/gemini ones
- download other mimetypes
I still want to implement history, bookmarks, and the other
ease-of-life improvements that make a browser worth using. But I also
really wanted to send a [ANN] email tonight, so here we are.
Let me know what you think!

Best,
