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:
-s, --tls Try to open Gopher URLs securely w/ TLS
-o, --tor Use local Tor proxy to open all pages
-S, -O Disable TLS or Tor
-r, --raw Print raw Gopher response only
-p, --print Print rendered Gopher response only
-l, --local Connect to 127.0.0.1:7070
-c, --config FILE Use instead of ~/.config/phetch/phetch.conf
-C, --no-config Don't use any config file
-h, --help Show this screen
-v, --version Show phetch version
Command line options always override options set in phetch.conf.
Once you've launched phetch, use `ctrl-h` to view the on-line help.
On macOS you can install with Homebrew:
brew install xvxx/code/phetch
Binaries for Linux, Raspberry Pi, and Mac are available at https://github.com/xvxx/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/xvxx/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 disable-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
