Hello everyone!
I am very proud to finally officially announce my new GopherClient built using
FreePascal/Lazarus. This is a PREVIEW RELEASE, so not every gopher feature is
yet available, but the big ones are. It will be available with binary
releases on all current major platforms. Furthermore, it will not require any
external dependencies or runtimes. In fact, I originally built and tested it
on a RedHat Enterprise Linux 6 workstation, and I was able to copy the binary
built there onto my Debian Wheezy workstation and it actually ran! I didn't
need to install anything, it just worked.
Attached is a screenshot of it running on my KDE Debian Linux box, I will be
compiling a Mac OS X and Windows version later on tonight and uploading the
binaries into my GopherSpace for all to enjoy!
Furthermore, this project is entirely open sourced under the GPLv2 license,
so feel free to fork it, add to it, and what have you. You can locate the
source code on my BitBucket page here:
https://bitbucket.org/kveroneau/gopherclient
You can find the binaries and source code on my GopherSpace here:
gopher://gopher.veroneau.net/1library/PascalGopher
The Pascal unit file gopherclient.pas can be used in other GPLv2 programs.
Currently the GopherSpace has binaries for Linux, Mac OS X, and I am just
about to build the Windows version right away. Each binary is only 7MB in
size uncompressed.
Enjoy!
