      MSGID: 1:153/7001.2989 68416823       CHRS: UTF-8 4       Hey Grant!              > In my original post I had chosen 64 columns wide is from the link       > below, so my gopher pages could have enough width left over to       > pretty some of the text with boxes.              Looking at it in vim I note that the total line length is 74 columns which       doesn't leave much for adding line/box drawing characters. 64 seems like a       good default given the typical 80 column x 24 line terminals assuming that       your sticking with the 7 column indentation. Is that the basic plan?              > Below is the reference I'm mentioning.              I did a 'lynx -dump gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/1/gopher/toybox' which       replicates what you posted ... and then some. As for fetching files from a       gopher server, curl works.              Life is good,       Maurice               o- -o o- -o o- o- -o o- o- o- o- o- -o o- -o -o       /) (\ /) (\ /) /) (\ /) /) /) /) /) (\ /) (\ (\       ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^       ...
