• Mystic Gopher client

    From Don Epi@10:103/12 to All on Tuesday, May 23, 2023 19:47:22
    Ive been using Another Droid s Mystic BBS Gopher Client (a cool python script)

    Im having a little issue: is there a way to set up this mod, so it could display latin charset? (you know, stressed vowels and so on)... I visited a lot
    of spanish gopherholes, but they showed badly.

    Anyways, a very nice (and customizable) mod.

    I don't think xqtr (from Another Droid) is typically active on Araknet. You could try posting this on Zer0net or call his BBS and ask him there. xqtr at demonic.net works for email too.

    Hi!

    Nice, gonna try that. I posted it here because maybe someone are using that mod.

    Thanks!

    I certainly don't want to steer anyone away from great Mystic mods, but I do enj0y the features that Lynx web browser offers for gopher sites. I use it on 2oFB w/ the following security settings;

    export TERM=pcansi && stty cols 80 rows 25 && lynx -book -anonymous -cfg=/home/pi/mystic/lynx.cfg -cmd_log=/home/pi/mystic/logs/lynx.log -restrictions=all

    If you notice the -cfg flag, I copied the original lynx.cfg file and modified it. There are many settings in there and I believe one could set Lynx up to display those chars - so long as the users terminal had them.

    Anyway... just sharing.

    Amiga Topaz supports Latin characters. You'll want to set your Lynx charset to ISO-8859-1.

    Be aware that if you do not add security code and compile it yourself, someone can hack the @#$% out of your system with the pre-compiled binaries out there.
