Hi all,

I've been running molly-brown for some time and I really like itsflexibility when it comes to handling funky mime types. I've been hostinga gemini mirror to textfiles.com for a while and lot of these files have randomfile extensions but they are actually all plain text files. With molly, Ican define mime types like this:

[MimeOverrides]"atom.xml$" = "application/atom+xml""rss.xml$" = "application/rss+xml"".$" = "text/plain"".gmi$" = "text/gemini"".tgz$" = "application/gzip"".zip$" = "application/zip"".tar.gz$" = "application/gzip"

That way anything that isn't defined is automatically assumed to be"text/plain" which works great for me.

I tried using gmnisrv and it has some wonderful features like certificategeneration and the ability to create multiple capsules however, custommime types must be managed manually which means that I would probably needto rename every file in the textfiles collection to .txt or .gmi which Ireally don't want to do.

I'm looking for suggestions for a server that can give me all of thesefunctions together in one place. Thanks!
