Driving a text editor as part of a user interface, as this post describes, reminds me of a similar tradition in Lisp. Think of Emacs and other Lisp Machine editors. Such design patterns were also common on Interlisp-D with the TEdit editor which could also be used as a GUI component.

        "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

        Lynx is great for browsing gopher and nntp.

          Many of the early text based adventure games were written in Basic. Vivian started programming by debugging text games written in Basic. The only way to distribute these games was as Basic source code.

          So, I got no skin in the game but I do think that Basic would be a good addition.

                Most people are inhuman - various spectrum of Nazi... [SENSITIVE CONTENT]

                @onepict Many types of Nazi's - which relates to what you said - though it may not seem directly related but:

                Many don't like / want to do things humanly, including human contact as community , as member, ETC !

                Just write / read only as a type of inhumane way ? even if you don't call yourself a ,
                "Yeah I don't do chats!"

                Human emotions, feelings - nope not for the many even though they need themselves to have it and even complain when leaders don't have it :facepalm:

                So for extreme Nazi's sure but the slightly lower down even for open signups - the answer is to chat to ALL of them eventually which a community should be doing anyway and can do among themselves...

                community safety 101 is not as simple as barring people or blocking... years of shows that even the well-to-do people can't see they are / / binary people / not doing their human / how the abounds and how much time they on other rather than sounding like a desperate person like me knowing how we get to any extreme - through silent and -accepting people, not just just racist or dominating people - people just rolling over and paying left and centre for any types of leaders / fascist to do the dirty work for us instead of us getting better at it and keeping control a bit more...

                Outsource / palm off.... not good
                even the good people / charity types.

                Happy to see if you reply as this can seem negative or against you or something - it's not... but people have to start the ball rolling and even do it yourself...

                Imagine if you were admin and came across my account asking you to talk while not having to give you my name or credit card details in the name of preserving what little we have left... many would treat it as suspicious rather than consider 'oh that's clever' when they come to rounding up more people or even educate how existing things work when something finally works and they go to shut it down...

                Happy to talk more... it's not just the Nazi's - it's also what we're all not doing (imagine Mastodon as the software EMPTY of people actually doing social ! )

                Great software. :mastodon:
