phetch is a terminal client designed to help you quickly navigate
the gophersphere.
phetch [options] Launch phetch in interactive mode
phetch [options] [url] Open Gopher URL in interactive mode
Options:
-t, --tls Try to open all pages w/ TLS
-r, --raw Print raw Gopher response only
-p, --print Print rendered Gopher response only
-l, --local Connect to 127.0.0.1:7070
-h, --help Show this screen
-v, --version Show phetch version
Once you've launched phetch, use `ctrl-h` to view the on-line help.
Binaries for linux, mac, and raspberry pi are available at https://github.com/dvkt/phetch/releases:
Just unzip/untar the phetch program into your $PATH and get going!
You can also build and install from source:
git clone https://github.com/dvkt/phetch
cd phetch
env PREFIX=/usr/local make install
To check for new versions of phetch, use the on-line help system in
the app (ctrl-h) or visit:
gopher://phkt.io/1/phetch/latest
cargo run -- <gopher-url>
Pro-tip: Run a local gopher server on 127.0.0.1:7070 and start
phetch with -l or --local to quickly connect to it.
To build with TLS support on Linux, you need openssl and
pkg-config:
sudo apt install -y pkg-config libssl-dev
To build without TLS support, build with the no-tls feature:
cargo build --features disable-tls
You can check whether TLS is enabled by visiting the About page:
cargo run --features disable-tls -- gopher://phetch/about
