| Loading gophermap from another server | |

| Do you deal with multiple gopher servers and need to embed a gophermap | |
| on one server from another? Here's a very simple trick you can do using | |
| an executable gophermap, you can see it in action on my phlog listing | |
| on SDF ( gopher://sdf.org:70/1/users/zcray/phlog )... It's not actually | |
| hosted on SDF, it's loaded directly from my personal site. | |
| So to pull this trick off, you'll need an executable gophermap and curl | |
| like so: | |
| #!/bin/sh | |
| /usr/pkg/bin/curl -s gopher://gopher.zcrayfish.soy/1/phlog/ | |
| And, yes, of course, you can embed it inline like so: | |
| #!/bin/sh | |
| echo -e "1An awesome gopher server\t/\tgopher.zcrayfish.soy\t70" | |
| /usr/pkg/bin/curl -s gopher://gopher.zcrayfish.soy/1/phlog/ | |
| echo This is info text | gsed -e 's/$/\tfake\t(NULL)\t1/' -e 's/^/i/' | |
| (above example works on SDF/BSD, change paths and use regular sed as | |
| appropriate, on GNU for instance) | |
