Re: "Gemini to Gopher Converter"

In: s/Gemini

Calling gopher “established and runs everywhere” is a huge stretch. Browsers haven’t included support for it in 20 years and most of the plugins to enable it died even before the plugins to re-enable FTP.

Yes, you can find gopher clients on Mac OS 8.6, but you can also find SSH clients and can just SSH into any Linux terminal and browse gemini from there.

I’ve gotten gemini clients working on MorphOS, OSX 10.4 for PowerPC, Haiku supports Lagrange, and everything else has some way to SSH to another terminal where you can run an ncurses gemini client.

What scenario is gopher more accessible?

Gemini to Gopher Converter — Hello friends, I'd like to serve my capsule as a gopher hole too. However I'd like to do it automagically through software. Do you know any script or utility that does convert a capsule or GMI into text files suitable for gopher hole? Thanks... 🙏
