I just started virtualizing my servers and moved my pygopherd server to a VM. (NetBSD on VMware 4.1) The content hasn't changed but there should be a text file saying that the host is digger. Hopefully I can get to doing something cool with it later this year. Finally coming up for air after being employed again after 3 years. ^_^ </pre> Mike Hebel 2013-04-19T03:42:52 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4566 <pre>Hi, Here in Belgium there are two major Telecom company’s. On of them is Telenet. Customers who have internet service form them have also access to many wifihotspots. That are unprotected networks. But when you request a website you are redirected to a page where you need to login so you can browse the web. But I have noticed if you do not login you can not browse the www, but gopher, that works! Maybe there are also other wifi service providers who have not bothered to block gopher in your country ?

I'm thinking of something like OldUse.net [1] does for usenet. Has anyone attempted such thing? I assume it would be like a honeynet, just that it's real daemons, handing out real content.

I am glad to announce the geomyidae 0.26.3[0][1] release. This release solely features the addition of IPv6 support. Try gopher://2a01:4f8:101:20a6::3 (r-36.net) Sincerely, Christoph Lohmann [0] http://www.r-36.net/src/Geomyidae/geomyidae-0.26.3.tar.gz [1] http://git.r-36.net/geomyidae/ </pre> Christoph Lohmann 2013-04-13T19:30:24 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4550 <pre>Hi all, I released today a new gopher client called "Gopherus". It is a console-mode client available for DOS, Windows and Linux. It must be noted that it's not using a real console on non-DOS targets, but a terminal emulation via SDL. Some of you might remember 'ddwarf' - another gopher client of mine, that I wrote about 4 years ago. Gopherus is visually very close to it, altough it doesn't share any code with ddwarf. I wanted to recreate a totally new gopher client, using the experience I gained on ddwarf. Unlike ddwarf, Gopherus is written in plain ANSI C (C89), therefore porting it to other platforms should be quit easy (should such need arise). The gopher page of Gopherus is right here: gopher://gopher.viste-family.net/1/projects/gopherus/ For those gopher-impaired, I made also a quick http website: http://www.viste-family.net/mateusz/software/gopherus/ Regards, Mateusz Viste </pre> Mateusz Viste 2013-03-12T11:43:33 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4549 <pre>Greetings list, I thought folks here might care to hear about a new free software project of mine, called Gopherfeed (https://github.com/lmaurits/gopherfeed). As the name suggests, it's a tool for converting RSS/Atom feeds into Gophermaps, which can make it very easy to quickly set up a gopher interface to existing material online, or to use a gopher client as a minimalist feed reader. You can see an example of the sort of thing Gophermap can do at gopher://luke.maurits.id.au/1feeds. That page is updated hourly from a cron job with a single command. I have just released Gopherfeed 1.2, which is the result of about a week of testing and debugging on my own site. While Gopherfeed is probably still far from bullet-proof, I think it should be fairly robust by now, with all the most obvious bugs worked out. There are more advanced features I would like to add (like using etags / Last-Modified headers to avoid fetching feeds which haven't changed since last time, and using multiple threads to speed up pulling down large numbers of feeds), but before I dive into that I want to make sure that the Gopher side of things is working well, since I'm fairly new to Gopher technology. I would appreciate if interested people could give Gopherfeed a spin and let me know how it works with various gopher servers and clients and on various OSes and Python versions, since my own testing has been pretty limited. Gopherfeed has been uploaded to PyPi, so if you have setuptools, distutils, pip or anything like that installed you should be able to install it simply via: easy_install gopherfeed or pip install gopherfeed etc. Once installed, you can get usage instructions by just running "gopherfeed" with no arguments, or you can see the README file on Github. Hope this is of use/interest to some of the people here.

Don't mind the new email address. I decided to rewrite my jgopherd, because I was a total java noob and wasn't proud of the code I wrote. Still at the same repo: https://github.com/richardg867/jgopherd - no external libraries required. The code and server are much better - uses thread pools, supports Buck moles (finally!), properly searches jars for a mole, and has directory indexing and a stats page backed by internal moles. Still unsure about some stuff - if I'll re-do the HTTP interface (Cameron's proxy is always better), if I should keep the code to automatically disable execute-flag mole detection if it's running on Windows, if I should cache jar moles, among other stuff. I also rewrote the imgur and reddit gateways, but they need somewhere to go. The server where my old gopherspace was on was kinda unreliable, but it's showing signs of becoming reliable. </pre> RichardG . 2013-03-05T20:07:11 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4538 <pre>Working on all its glory: http://i.imgur.com/I4XW8os.png Only two steps to make it compile with make linux: - Extend the OS X special case to __CYGWIN__ in gopher/object/Regex.h because NTFS is *also* case insensitive. - Remove OS X specific cflags in gophervr/Makefile Here's the binary: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/861751/Gopher/gophervr-cygwin.zip Should only need X11 and motif (it's available as a package) to run. Building on the other hand, I haven't tracked down what do you need to build it, but I had to install libXt-devel and libXm-devel. </pre> RichardG . 2013-03-03T12:06:04 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4537 <pre>Hello, it's been a long time!

This has been fixed for the most part.

This is a small gopher proxy that is easily integrated into WikkaWiki [2]. You can try it out here [3]. Also, for those who follow 2nd Amendment issues, I've a complete 7-year archive of news digests from the DUF (Defensive Use of Firearms) mailing list, updated daily [4]. This is the only archive that's available on the Internet, brought to you of course by gopher.

I tested it on TenFourFox 19 and 17. Please test it ASAP so I can submit it to Mozilla Addons. You should notice no difference if it works right. gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/9/overbiteff.xpi </pre> Cameron Kaiser 2013-01-17T04:02:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4505 <pre>Due to bug 769764, proxy support doesn't work right now in Firefox 18 with OverbiteFF. I'm going to fix this, but it may not be possible to repair it without breaking 3.6-17 compatibility, so this is an advance warning. </pre> Cameron Kaiser 2013-01-15T05:32:15 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4504 <pre>If you haven't played with the Philips hue wireless lighting system, and you have $200 doing nothing, pick up a set and then look at this: http://www.floodgap.com/software/huepl/ I've got my hue lights interfaced to a private instance of the gopher server so my mobile phone can control it over Overbite Android. Yes, there's an Android app, but this allows me to keep the hue base station on a private internal network where it can't phone home to Philips. </pre> Cameron Kaiser 2012-12-29T20:25:12 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4500 <pre>Because of changes in Chrome's extension environment (why can't they have proper extensions like Firefox?) that greatly impair development and the fact I hardly ever use Chrome personally, Overbite Chrome will be removed for Chrome 24. If you want to take over development, please contact me. There are some nice things afoot with network socket access now possible, but the Omnibar changes interfere, and Chrome is not a good browser for anything but HTTP. </pre> Cameron Kaiser 2012-12-18T14:32:38 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4498 <pre>New gopher server: "A list of Wikipedia articles created last month/week/day with most users contributing to article within the same period." gopher://gopher.conus.info/ Updated hourly, just as its WWW counterpart. </pre> Dennis Yurichev 2012-12-10T06:58:29 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gopher.general/4496 <pre>I found that recently I've been using the luakit web-browser a lot, it's one of those "lightweight" keyboard driven types but unusually not totally mouse hostile. Despite having never messed with lua before I started to think it might be nice if it could do something with gopher links - a sort of overbite for luakit...

Includes support for Haiku R1, fixes for compilers other than GCC + simplified Debian package. Haiku support is complete including checking whether the computer is really turned on (is_computer_on()). Hey, does anyone have an opinion between SHM and mmap()? Haiku didn't have SHM but does have mmap() so I'm thinking about switching... Download: gopher://gophernicus.org/1/software/gophernicus/server/ Full ChangeLog: * Added logcheck ignore file for Debian * Fixed compile without HAVE_SHMEM * Autogenerated caps.txt now works without SHMEM * Support for Haiku R1 (make &amp;&amp; make install works) * CGIs now have $LOCAL_ADDR * Debian package no longer depends on lsb-release * CPU type is now properly detected on AIX * Makefile supports cross-compiling (CC &amp; HOSTCC) * Option -nr disables root user checking (for debugging) * Platform detection for Linux/mips boards (routers) * Fixes for OpenBSD (thanks to Brian Callahan) * Last remaining sprintf() replaced with snprintf() * max() is no longer a function but a #define * Clang fixes (thanks to Jacob Dahl Pind) * Removed system-info.sh &amp; dmidecode from Debian package - Kim </pre> Kim Holviala 2012-12-02T09:18:04 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.network.gopher.general
