Welcome to the Soviet, sundog!

As a member of the Soviet, part of your cell is marked for publishing as a
Gemini capsule. In your home directory, you will find a `gemini` directory.
Gemini content can be added here. Once it has been added, you should remember
to appropriately set the permissions by calling chmod:

 $ chmod o+r gemini/<content>.gmi

Gemini content typically is written into .gmi or .gemini files. Gemini markup
(or "gemtext") is a lightweight format intended to make interactions over the
Gemini protocol both performant and featureful. A couple of notes:

 * Gemtext is typically written without any artificial line breaks. Gemini
   clients will wrap the text appropriately for the reader's screen.
 * While Gemini clients are typically written to handle any kind of plain text
   reasonably well, you can get some enhanced functionality by making use of
   certain features and patterns.
	* Example: Certain clients and aggregators can derive a subscription
	  from your Gemini log if you use a consistent format for entry names,
	  typically either adding a new heading line with # for each entry or
	  tagging each entry with the date: YYYY-MM-DD.

More details about the Gemini markup format can be found here:

Once you have published your content, don't forget to update the permissions!
