phroxy is a small, multi-threaded web server that proxies Gopher requests through HTTP. It's meant to be run locally and was written for gogo, a WebKit Gopher client.

Run it in a terminal then visit the local URL in your favorite web browser to burrow through the Gophersphere with ease.

credits

phroxy's design is based on phetch and inspired by Gaufre.

The proxy idea comes from older gopher/web proxy sites like https://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/.

It was made for gogo, which was inspired by lartu's OpenNapkin client.
