- Description:
-
- WebGopher is an application allowing users of any 'World Wide Web'
- browser which is compatible with the ArcWeb fetcher protocol (ArcWeb or
- Webster for example) to access resources via 'gopher:' URLs.
-
- Gopher menus are converted into HTML files, and gopher resources are
- automatically stored in a resource directory for later retrieval.
- An interface to gopher/veronica searches is also provided.
-
- It also includes prototype versions of Telnet and FTP URL handlers.
- These have NOT been fully tested, but seem to function OK most of the
- time. The FTP handlers are via proxy machine only at the moment.
