@rml #MastodonEl
@mousebot do you take ridiculously extensive feature requests
because if so ^ and also respecting safe ANSI escapes
It's liberation software, contribute it myself you say...........
EDIT: Okay, I confused my feature desire for #elpher with #mastodonEl , but still ;p

@zoerhoff works in #phetch , #elpher and gopher.floodgap.com/gopher proxy, doesn't work in lynx CAUTIONARY TALES

Don't trust me, I really don't yet know what I'm doing!

I need to get a bit more info about using a socks proxy in emacs, but I already have stretched the sunday to nearly monday's breakfast. Why do the best ideas always show up so late? Or early again? Eeeeeeh...

Looks like elpher in Debian 11 (stable) cannot display Gemini pages, even though it retrieves them fine (it's probably outdated). Oh well, I still have amfora for that :)

Umm, Not UNIX based, and I'm having a little trouble recollecting, (maybe at @yarmo 's "Delightful" site?), But I do know there's a #Fediverse CLI client, and I think it uses the Mastodon API - I just can't think of it right now. #SMJ over at #SDF ported #commode to #NetBSD so I see no reason why you couldn't do this, and think it's a great idea!

#Lain put #Gopher support in #Pleroma, but set the default to a funky port - it works with #Lynx & #Elpher too.

#EmacsTip: Heard the names #Gopher and/or #Gemini? #Gopher is the predecessor of #HTML, small, light-weight. #Gemini is a new protocol, an alternative of bloated #HTML, clean and tidy.

Since these protocols are simple and light-weight, these are ideal for browsing in #Emacs. Try #Elpher, a #Gopher and #Gemini client for #Emacs

I just noticed that #mastodonel opens #gemini links with #elpher.  \o/ 
And it works with #gopher links too.

It works great. Navigate the cursor to within the item description for items you wish to follow. There is also elpher-back.
A slight mystery: I believe that itemtype 1 and itemtype 7 are construed to be the same, but in elpher use 1 instead of 7 and just write in your QUERY_STRING yourself.

after tweaking around #elpher I finally able to connect to #gemini pods after all. I set

(elpher-gemini-TLS-cert-checks 'nil)

and this kinda helped. before that I was always getting connection time out.

but yay, now I can comfortably explore gemini capsules.

Trying to access #gemini links from #org-mode through #elpher, is this the way to go?

  (org-link-set-parameters "gemini" :follow (lambda (url) (elpher-go (concat "gemini:" url))))

On some of my computers, I needed:

(require 'tls)

for #Elpher on #Emacs to work properly.

The library is deprecated, but it functions.

#Gemini

I had no problems at all, so I decided to try #elpher, and it looks amazing, opens #gopher links easily, however I can't connect to #gemini sites.

All I get is

"---- ERROR -----
When attempting to retrieve gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/:
Connection time-out."

Any chance anyone had same problem (and solved)? Can't google anything and have no idea how to troubleshoot this issue.

Let me see if I can package #elpher for #Debian

There mist already be an ITP, but hey.

#gopher #gemini

So many #gemini clients! Even in #bash. Note that #elpher already supports it (under dev).
