Playing around with the Gopher protocol by building a hierarchical gopher browser for macOS, which I haven't seen done. It's kind of fascinating to browse a server where links can be directories on other servers. You can easily hit 5-10 different servers without leaving the page.
The yellow window will be a scrapbook of sorts where you can drag folders and files over to browse later inline.
Fun! And props to everyone out there running a gopher server. :D
