- Description:
-
- The Internet Gopher is a distributed document delivery service. It
- allows a neophyte user to access various types of data residing on
- multiple hosts in a seamless fashion. This is accomplished by
- presenting the user a hierarchical arrangement of documents and by
- using a client-server communications model. The Internet Gopher Server
- accepts simple queries, and responds by sending the client a document.
-
- This is a first attempt at creating a Gopher client for the Archimedes.
- At the moment it is only an ordinary Gopher, support for Gopher+ may
- follow later.
