I have an sdf-eu.org account that provides gopherspace. There I have the "mkgopher" instruction. I can define an "title" for my gophersite and a "discription" of 60 symbols. But is not clear to how to make an menu page. Text and links to documents, provide a discription to those directorys. How can you add an search function (Veronica?) It seems there is also a hidden file ".links" that contains information. I am looking for an overview of the different instructions that exist that you can use for a gopher site. Like there is for www by use of an index of the html-makeup options and how to use it. Is there sofware special for making a gopher site? I use GNU/linux. Greetings, Walter Vermeir
