I got bored a few weeks ago and decided to move over from www to 
gopher... So I tried a few different gopher servers (mgod, pygopherd) 
and found that none could serve out my UTF-8 filenames. So I decided to 
code my own server (yeah, it was the filenames, not my NIH syndrome - no 
sire).

Anyway, I re-learnt "C" and coded a working gopher daemon in less than a 
week... And since it worked so well I decided to release it under the 
BSD license in case anyone else is stuck with files with UTF-8 chars in 
them.

Current sources can be found from here:
gopher://gopher.holviala.com/1/kgopherd

Bugreports, complaints et all are welcome.
