    "This Vista de Valencia, composed of 5031 individual pieces of type, has a distinctly digital quality to it.

    It's made almost 100 years before the advent of ASCII art, but the image's construction, the trees in particular, bear an uncanny resemblance to the semigraphic style of Commodore PETSCII art."

        "For instance is there anything similar to RSS for gopher."
        The best way is likely to write a bash script to construct an XML file with a page per channel.

        'cURL' should be useful since it support gopher, although you will have to custom script it.

        'Lynx' browser also handles gopher quite nicely and you should be able to use the -dump feature and parse what you want.

        'sfeed' may also help: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/sfeed_gopher.1.html

        Debian / Ubuntu APT Package Manager
        $ apt search gopher
        $ apt-get install gophernicus bombadillo lynx curl kristall pygopherd sfeed

        profit!

        Lynx is great for browsing gopher and nntp.

        Kristall is a graphical browser with gopher support.

        Gophie browser:
