[gopher] New Cross-Platform Gopher GUI Client

Hello all!

  This morning marks yet another update to my Gopher client.  This update 
includes a new font selector, which uses the OSes native font dialog.  I 
confirmed that the font does change on Linux/OSX/Win10.  This should help out 
with any accessibility, the tree also respects this font choice as well.  You 
can find it under the "Options" menu.

  This update also includes a proper threaded download manager!  Yay!  Now you 
can download files and images from Gopherspace, and a download manager window 
will appear to display the progress.

  There is also initial support for rendering Gopher menu items in the HTML 
pane.  Previously when the Gopher menu was rendered, menu items were not 
clickable.  With this update, you can browser gopher just as you would in a 
non-tree gopher browser.  This support is experimental, so there might be 
bugs, and not all gopher menu items will work through this mode.  This is more 
or less so that when you view a gopher menu, you can tell what items are 'i' 
items, and which ones are gopher items.

  As usual, the updated binary files and source code can be found on my 
GopherSpace, and the source code repository on my BitBucket page has also been 
updated with the source code changes.

  There is still much work to be had, but thus far this Gopher client is 
shaping into something great and very fun to work on during my pass time.

Best Regards,
  Kevin Veroneau
