- I've hacked up the xgopher.1.1a client to support (some what) the
- 'q' type. The limitations (due to time and other things I'm
- supposed to be doing :-), it has the following limitations:
-
- Query Types must return type '0' (file)
- Only the first prompt is displayed and returned from input.
-
- Its mainly for "seeing" the 'q' in action with xgopher.
-
- Considering how ambitious the 'q' type is (although the curses client
- was trivial to modify), and lack of interest, I would still like to see a
- simple type like '7' that returns a file. This patch to xgopher basically
- gives you that.
-
- In any event, I've placed the file:
-
- xgopher.query.shar
-
- In the pub/gopher/incoming directory on boombox.
