Cool! I just got Castor and mcross installed last night, but neither works with alternate ports (not 1965) which I've had to host my jetforce server on. So im stuck playing with authoring using V-98to view. So if you could make sure gemini://url:port works, I'd love it.

Hey!
Do you know any good gateway to read gemini with a http browser?
Regards,

There was some discussion in another thread about having inline links
in text/gemini, which solderpunk rejected because it would make
parsing much more difficult. I agree with him, and so I wonder what
others on this list think of my take on this. Does using footnotes
make
sense? Are there better, or just different ways to do solve this
problem?
As a 'best practice', and not as a specification, I prefer using
footnotes after each paragraph. I'm glad to see your program supports
that option.

I realize there's not, and the code is only on the ThinkPad whose power

figure out how Gnome Builder interacts with PyGTK better.

Hey all!
I was working on this for the last weekend or so, and I believe it's
now ready enough to share.
Announcing: Moonlander[1], the fanciest graphical Gemini client in the
entire solar system [citation needed].
[1]: https://sr.ht/~admicos/moonlander
A screenshot: https://files.ecmelberk.com/img/1589891854.png
Please note that it's still under development, and there are a lot of
known bugs. Still, why not take it for a spin?
The rest of this mail will be an excerpt from the readme file:
----
## Features
- Custom, themeable rendering engine via Cairo & Pango
- Tries to follow Gnome HIG
### Known Bugs
- TLS Certificates aren't verified
- Somewhat high resource usage (for a Gemini client)
- No cross-protocol linking (yet)
- Cannot navigate backwards through redirections
- Renderer doesn't behave "native"
- Cannot select/copy text
- No interaction other than mouse clicks on links and scrolling
### Planned Features
- Tabs
- Render more than just text/gemini and plaintext.
- Planned: Markdown & images
- Possibly support other protocols
- Gopher, etc.
- Definitely not HTTP, unless excluding HTML
- Syntax highlighting (?)
- Waiting on text/gemini preformatting annotations to be somewhat
standardized

Hi all,
Just FYI in case anyone is seeing the increased crawling traffic this
morning, GUS is getting some upgrades. And by upgrades I of course
mean it's now breaking in novel, unexpected ways. Fingers crossed it
should calm down soon! And once it does, GUS searches should be even
better (I noticed I wasn't handling relative links on pages well, so I
think the index has been missing a fair bit of content thus far).

Hey all!
I've just recently started looking into Gemini, and I decided to try
and
write my own little client. ???? I love what other people have done,
but
something I've noticed is that a lot of existing clients don't
support
Windows, so I thought I'd work on my own. ????
Additionally, I kinda wanted to play with Rust and localization
technologies, so that's on full display here as well. ????
Here's the github page! https://github.com/strega-nil/garnet
I warn you that it is... not feature complete at all. Currently, all
it
does is request gemini pages and print the resulting response out
directly.
Thanks for checking it out y'all!
Nicole
Hi Nicole,
Can't wait to try this out. I'll probably take some time to dig through
the code to see how it works and how it's built as time allows. I'm
stuck
on Windows for my day-job, so having a nice Gemini client would be a
real
luxury :)
Thanks for the time and effort you are putting into this project!

I'm a big-time Linux user, bare-metal, and BSD guy. However, I'm
confined
to Windows for my day job :/ So, I was just wondering if anyone on
this
list knows of a Windows client floating around that I could use.
I didn't tried but I would say that Alrisha
(https://git.sr.ht/~fabrixxm/alrisha) being pure Qt should run on
windows without any problem...
Hi there!
Thanks for the recommendation! I just had a chance to look into this
last
night and, unfortunately I'm not that comfortable creating a Qt account
just to install the tooling required to run qmake :/ I might be missing
something that allows me to bypass the account creation, but it's a
principle thing I guess LOL. The client itself seems nice enough
though,
and if they had pre-compiled builds I'd certainly use one of 'em.
Thanks again :D
