bombadillo fork gets stdout capability

Created 2022-06-06

A few days ago I got my bombadillo fork working with the Spartan protocol. Today I added the "-p" flag. This fetches the URL and prints the output to stdout.

Por que?

Well, I had managed to get Spartan working with a little Racket version I was working on. I found out about the Tinyblog format, and figured that it would be interesting. But I don't fancy trying to implement Gemini myself. The whole certificate thing looks a pain.

I decided that a better approach would be to use bombadillo as a download agent. The plan is that it would output to a temporary file that Racket could then process. It seems easier.

Transmission ends.
