They're both quite young, but they both work for most operations. The first was written by Stefan Rieken and is available from: http://www.hobbiton.org/~pflipp/software/gnopher.en.html It's intended for use with GNOME. It requires a library called GNet distributed with Helix GNOME in addition to GNOME for building. It has a file manager type look to it, and looks pretty cool. (See the above page for screenshots) The second is called FORG, and is available from http://opop.nols.com/proggie/forg-0.03.tar.gz This runs with Python, Tkinter, and Pmw. Instructions for getting and installing these are included with the program. This program has more of a browser type interface. I am the author of this one. Both programs are licensed under the GNU General Public License. Neither of them is very mature, but in my opinion, they both have promise, so check them out. -- David Allen http://opop.nols.com/
