Hi!
I'm announcing my first proper piece of Gemini software: twinwiki!
The general idea is that a single line of input[1] works for very few
text
editing interfaces, yet most of us know one: sed. Mostly people use a
very
small subset of sed. Here I've implemented a slightly larger subset and
I
feel you could actually edit pages quite well if the browser showed line
numbers.

Kiitos täästä! Erittäin kiva idee. Obviously this sed-based approachis viable for a narrow slice of people, but in general this is a mindsetthat I would like to see become part of "Gemini culture", i.e. embracingconstraints and coming up with creative ways to work within them.

I've added this to the software list, and while I was at it, broke allCGI applications (at least the ones I recognised as being CGIapplications) out into their own section. If you've written a CGI toolfor Gemini and I don't have it listed, please let me know.
