Hey Benny!
BP> good, i only have simple gopher client on windows 10 from app
BP> store, that one works, on andoid i dont know if anything exists
Me neither. As far as I can tell I only have lynx that works at the moment although I probably could write a bash script that uses netcat to create a client fidonet-ish app. There is a Net::Gopher module for perl and I've heard rumours of a python gopher module.
BP> i would like to do the replacement for ftp:// to gopher:// with
BP> it, so i can close that problem with ftp protocol
Offhand I think ftp is the better option.
BP> i dont know much on how to build gopher pages yet
Other than a client script for kermit, I havem't used gopher in roughly 30 years now.
BP> feel free to send me example pages in netmail to test with
This is your idea not mine but if I get more curious about it I might try something out that may or may not be of any interest to your goal for it. I can't see this idea catching on though beyond a server and a few clients on smartphones. Gopher might be a better option than sms messaging and the such. Is that what you're thinking?
Life is good,
Maurice
