Another text/gemini to html, but in AWK

1. Draco Metallium(Rodrigo S. Cañibano) (draco.kun (a) gmail.com)

Hi! I just made another `text/gemini` to html translator, but this
time written in AWK.

It might not be the fastest translator, but I think it's fast enough.
On a tp-link mr320 (with only 32mb of ram and just 265.42 BogoMIPS) it
can convert a 15.2K gemini file in 0.149s, and 1000 of them in just
under 10 minutes. Also, it is short, just 135 lines of code, which
includes some "fancy" stuff like changing local links to gmi files to
point to the html version.

Maybe someone will find a use for it.

Here is the code:

Bye!

Nice! Has anyone assembled a list of all these types of things yet?
There are a lot of options so it'd be nice to give people an easy way to 
pick one that suits them.

Nice! Has anyone been keeping a list of all these anywhere?
It'd be helpful for people who need one of these to see all of them laid 
out in one place.

Nice! Has anyone been keeping a list of all of these to help newcomers 
looking through all their options?

Hi!

There's an "awesome" list which is actively maintaned but still lacks some info for sure:
https://github.com/kr1sp1n/awesome-gemini
Patches are welcome!

There has been a discussion about a "curated" list of tools in geminispace with some
more information to allow interested users make a informed decision.
To my knowledge the Random Road Directory gemini://directory.randomroad.net is the only
approach that comes close to this request.

kind regards
Ren?
