[ANN] A new gemini client for acme

1. Parker Ellertson (pellertson (a) firemail.cc)

This client is 52 lines long (68 if you count the lines in
"displayonacme"), and as of now it's just a bare-bones client that
doesn't do any sort of TOFU authentication or self-signing certs.
There will be improvements made on it later (such as not opening
duplicate windows for the same URL) but I'm very happy with the way it
is now.  The GitHub link is at the bottom, and there's probably a bug
or two.  I'm going to continue work on this so that it's top-notch.

You're my hero. I've been using a color-stripped AV-98 in a win pane.

Thank you so much lmao,

This is already an excellent start; thank you! I've been wanting an
acme client for this right along, but have been too tired to
just...sit down and do it...so, again, thanks!

Incidentally, if you do decide to rewrite in rc (as practice with it
or whatever, given the comment in the script), $PLAN9/lib/acme.rc has
convenience functions for a lot of the stuff in displayonacme.

Cheers,
Ivy

I didn't expect such an immediate response for this client.  To lel,
ivy, and who ever else might use this client: thank you!

I just fixed a bug on the client, so it now handles relative paths
correctly.  The basic client is *finally* complete!
