Thanks for sharing this, and congrats on being the first graphicalGemini client author!

Today I finally managed to get Castor compiled (Rust and Debian Stableare not a winning combiation) and took it for a little test drive.  Onthe whole it seems to work quite nicely, but I did notice some odditieswith Gopher content, e.g.gopher://republic.circumlunar.space/~katolaz/phlog/20200111_hack_the_break.txtseems to have the top part of the document missing.

I have added Castor to the official list of Gemini software atgemini.circumlunar.space, sorry for the delay in doing so!

Cheers,Solderpunk
