Description:

The Internet Gopher is a distributed document delivery service.  It
allows a neophyte user to access various types of data residing on
multiple hosts in a seamless fashion.  This is accomplished by
presenting the user a hierarchical arrangement of documents and by
using a client-server communications model.  The Internet Gopher Server
accepts simple queries, and responds by sending the client a document.

This is a first attempt at creating a Gopher client for the Archimedes.
At the moment it is only an ordinary Gopher, support for Gopher+ may
follow later.
