Hello everyone

I've been working on a new console Gemini client - Romulus. It's cross platform, written in C#.

Its new, so there may be some rough edges. But already its quite full-featured, particularly from a user interface perspective.

Key features include:

Interactive menus* Mouse support, including wheelmouse scrolling for consoles that support it* Monochrome yet beautiful gemtext rendering, by using whitespace and layout to indicate the page elements and structure. A quiet UI to save your eyes.* Fixes vertical spacing between elements for a global homogenous gemtext style* Pretty text rendering, including hanging bullets, nice quotations and the like* Interactive table of contents for each page* Fast history navigation, including remembering page offset* Bookmark support

For further details, screenshots and downloads, see

For now I have a precompiled binary for windows, but it should compile for other platforms. If anyone can assist with how to cross-compile the C# for other platforms, please let me know. This is an area I am still finding my way in.

If you manage to compile it or try it out, any feedback would be appreciated.
