I had some problems with the permissions on SDF, this appears to solve it, but there must be a better way... Directories need to be 755 Files apart from gophermap need to be 644 gophermap can remain 640 Also, using "nano -r67 " seems to help with all the formatting.. I've gone for the "9" selector for PDFs rather than "d" because although the "d" option makes things look prettier the links aren't left clickable in a browser and the commandline gopher client doesn't display the menu items at all. ./mkgopherentry "First Post part 2" FirstPost2 -- script for making blog entries. Changed the last line of mkgopherentry to chmod the phlog file to 644. Hope this helps.
