I will look further into that. Font options would be something I will definately look into. I updated the Source code to enable GopherType 7 and h, so now Veronica-2 works, as well as most gopherholes which use the search type. Initial support for the 'h' type has also been added, however I am trying to debug how to make the "data:" protocol which some gopherpages use work properly. These updates are not available in the binary images yet, I will make an updated set of binaries tomorrow evening after I get more working. :) On Wednesday, August 24, 2016 11:10:22 PM James Mills wrote: > Okay...
