- From RFC 1436 describing Gopher

Way back in the early 1990's, Gopher was a major part of the internet. Over the years it has waned, but there are still quite a few Gopher servers running.

This is is a modern Gopher browser for iOS. Built from the ground up, it lets you access the wealth of data available via Gopher from your favorite devices.

- Supports text files, images, directories
- Opens WWW links in Safari
- Supports Veronica-2, Contrition, and other search systems for searching the Gopherspace

Limitations:

- This does not support the non-standard Gopher+ extensions, or CSO selectors

7bit ASCII only

The original protocol had no international content in mind. An update to support modern UTF-8 encoding is very much appreciated. Some Gopher Server (i.e. Gophernicus) do it already.
I used Gopher a very long time ago, with Modem and NEC V20 PC. It’s really fun to discover it again.

Good, but no utf8 support

Lots of gopher pages contain ascii art or non standard characters. The gopher client can not show them.

Otherwise it's a lovely client. And gopher is cool.
