Howdy,
I clone the repo but when I try to use it:
zaibatsu$ ./bollux GO
gemini.circumlunar.spacebollux: [] bollux: ./bollux: line 38: exit: 100 Unknown response code: .: numeric argument requiredzaibatsu$
Am I doing it wrong?
Cheers,Solderpunk

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!
