Gopher client porting and plans

Gopher client porting
---------------------

I've begun gopher client project as part of project "network
tools for ZX Uno", but some folks with other speccy clones
and network hardware want it too.

My first movement to this side was simplified spectranet
client(you may load it from my TNFS server on nihirash.net).

To start spectranet version just type:

%mount 0, "nihirash.net"
%load ""

Sources of port to spectranet available on my github:
https://github.com/nihirash/spec-goph

Feel free to contribute to it.

Time going on and yesterday was made request for porting it
to ZX Spectrum Next. It uses compatible ESP-chip, have esxDos
and even have Timex HiRes mode. Just different UART driver.

I think I'll made it, but I prefer keep mention that this
client was originally developed for ZX Uno.

For me its important. I don't know how I'll make SpecNext
version. Maybe conditional compilation with replacing uart
driver, maybe I'll make sepparate project.

My other plans is updating my gopherspace.
-----------------------------------------

Now Virtual TR-DOS mirror have just pagination and you
must seek game via exploring folders.

I think about search engine for it.

Maybe on this weekend(if I'll get enought time) I'll try
make search engine for it and games will be easier to find
and download.

If I'll continue porting gopher client to other Speccy clones
and hardware, I think there will be sepparate sections for
each version of gopher client
