Motsognir and Burrow
March 11th, 2018
----------------------------------------
This new gopher hole is running a brand new server called
Motsognir [0]. It's written by mateusz [1] in c and has pretty
much no dependencies. It was an absolute breeze to install.

Motsognir is far more strict about gophermaps than Gophernicus
was, and it required a bit of cleanup to get my things showing
properly. I think this is a good thing, though. I want my gopher
repo to be portable in case I ever switch servers again, so
authoring things to the standard has benefits. The biggest
difference is that Gophernicus allowed you to write gophermap
information lines without a prefix of "i". This is great for
quickly editing things and I knew I'd miss it. So, I've updated
burrow [2] to automatically add these when creating a new post and
temporarily remove them when editing posts. Handy, right? Side
benefit: the rewrite of that code means I'm no longer limited to
links at the bottom of posts. I can drop them in wherever and
burrow will just handle it.
