SOFTWARE | |
If you are a member of colorfield.space and have created | |
software that you would like to see here, please email | |
[email protected] (include your username for colorfield.space). | |
In general, the goal of the software developed here so far | |
has been to provide simple and direct tools that provide a | |
consistent and easy to understand user experience. | |
Gopher clients: | |
___________________________________________________________ | |
BOMBADILLO | |
Bombadillo is a gopher client for the terminal. It is | |
built as a 'full screen' terminal program program with vim | |
style keybindings/commands, paging/scrolling, bookmarks, and | |
user configuration options. It supports gopher, gemini, finger | |
and, as opt-in options, telnet & http. | |

STUBB | |
Stubb is a gopher client written for Colorfield Space. | |
With Stubb users can view textual gopher content, save | |
favorites, open tabs, save files, etc. Stubb was written | |
in Lua and is quick and has a low memory overhead. | |
Chat clients: | |
___________________________________________________________ | |
COLORCHAT | |
Colorchat is a curses based chat client. It is the main | |
chat client in use at colorfield.space. It is fairly | |
basic and really just does one thing: live chat. It also | |
has a counter for how long ago the last message was sent. | |

GAB | |
Gab is the other chat client in use on the server. It | |
functions as a shell script that tails the chat log or | |
adds a message to it (depending on your flag). This | |
provides a simple interface to check in on new messages | |
without having to stop other tasks to sit in a chat | |
window. | |
System utlilities & Communication tools: | |
___________________________________________________________ | |
Colorsh is the main user shell found at colorfield.space. | |
It was developed to provide a simple shell experience for | |
users of any computing background. As such, many common | |
BASH commands are available, as are many custom programs | |
developed just for the system. Beyond the basic REPL, | |
COLORSH is a collection of small programs, mostly built | |
in Python, Bash, and Awk. | |
COLORSH is not currently available via a code repository. | |
If you are interested in the software, please e-mail | |
[email protected] and you will be sent the source. Once it | |
gets to a more mature point, it will be available here. | |

CHALK | |
Chalk is a line/row based text editor built specifically | |
for use on colorfield.space, as a part of COLORSH. It was | |
then split off as a standalone application. Chalk was | |
strongly influenced by the editor built for and in use at: | |
The Red Consensus | |
Chalk takes on the basic style of The Red Consensus' editor | |
and extends its functionality to include inserting, | |
deleting, and editing lines. It also features C style | |
readline capabilities, allowing for moving around the row | |
and moving through history. Chalk can open existing text | |
files, as well as create new ones. | |

CSPC | |
Cspc (or "c space") is the server's message board. | |
It allows for creation of topics, posts, and replies. | |
Providing standard message board features and using | |
a stripped down version of chalk, as the editor. | |

LINKULATOR | |
Linkulator is a link agregator for the terminal. It | |
has a similar feel to hacker news where users can | |
post links and users can comment on those links. It | |
is a great way to share links with other users as well | |
as serve as a sort of global bookmark repository for | |
the server. Linkulator is a shell script created by | |
user cmccabe. A link to linkulator will be added here | |
as soon as one is available. | |
