Floodgap Systems gopher root | |
GopherVR was a 3-D environment for Gopherspace, allowing you | |
to "walk around a server" and get a graphic view of its contents | |
using a simple VR-type world. It was originally released for | |
classic Macintosh systems and in an unfinished version for | |
Motif-based X11. | |
This version of GopherVR is based on the unfinished Motif | |
GopherVR, updated with some new features, some critical bug | |
fixes and to allow it to build on modern platforms. It is still | |
unfinished, but you can play with it. It builds and runs on Mac | |
OS X 10.4 through 10.11 (PowerPC + Intel), Irix 6.5 (MIPS), | |
OpenBSD and most Linux distributions. Basic Cygwin support is | |
also available. | |
GopherVR is largely GPL, but see the help copyright information. | |
THERE IS STILL A LONG WAY TO GO -- see the ChangeLog and | |
to-do list. Enjoy. Send me comments at [email protected]. | |

GopherVR To-do list | |
Current GopherVR for Mac OS X | |
This is GopherVR pre-built for Mac OS X. It contains a | |
launcher that maintains a Dock icon, and autostarts X11. You | |
must install OpenMotif first (a free download). This is a | |
Universal Binary that will run on 10.4+. Put it in your | |
Applications folder. Please see the To-do list for known bugs. | |
*If you used a prior version, we are now using a custom | |
OpenMotif that works correctly with El Capitan. Get it here: | |
Get OpenMotif-Mac for Mac OS X (WWW) | |
** FOR HELP: Go to Help > Help Topics ** | |
Current GopherVR for Irix 6.5 | |
This is GopherVR pre-built for Irix 6.5.10 and higher. You | |
must have a compatible SGI MIPS workstation. It is tested | |
on the SGI Indy and SGI Fuel machines. Please see the To-do | |
list for known bugs. | |
Current GopherVR source | |
This is the current snapshot of the GopherVR source, with | |
a modified libgopher (3.0.11 with patches) as well as the | |
Mac OS X launcher source and all the needed software | |
renderer libraries. See INSTALL for how to build. NOTE: | |
YOU MUST INSTALL MOTIF OR A COMPATIBLE LIBRARY FIRST! The | |
launcher Xcode project requires Xcode 2.5 or higher and | |
will automatically build with xcodebuild after the main | |
binary. | |
