This application lets your Mac function as a Gopher
server.

To run this software you will need the have MacTCP
installed on your Macintosh. You will have to configure
MacTCP so that your Mac has a static IP address; you
will also need to register a name for your Macintosh
with your local domain name system. Once you launch the
Gopher program your Macintosh is an internet Gopher
server. While running as a server, your Mac will make
everything in the folder the Gopher was run from
available to Gopher clients. Note that you can either
run the Gopher server in the foreground under Finder
(before System 7) or in the background (MultiFinder or
System 7).

The Gopher's Helper is a hypercard 2.0 stack that can be
used to easily attach long names to files and
directories and establish links to entities that either
are on other gopher servers or are pointers (links)  to
index servers, CSO nameservers, and the like. See the
internet Gopher Protocol document for more information
about valid types of internet gopher entities.
