        I don't remember a specific naming scheme, but I was young and it was a long time ago.

        As for clients. I did use minuet for a little bit. But by the time I was using it, the web was already more interesting.

          Yes, the guy that resurrected UMN is at it again. This time, I've made the first new release in 15 years! changelog.complete.org/archive This protocol, originally for serial lines, lives on and I use it as a powerful ssh wrapper daily. I added a modern test suite, fixed a ton of bugs, added IPv6 support.

          And, rather to my surprise, ENJOYED working in a legacy codebase.

                      "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
