Hello there,
I've been lurking this mailing list for a few days, and I have an easy 
question for you all.. but first, I guess I have to introduce myself :)
I am a boy from Italy, 18 in a month or so, and I'm interested in all 
the technologies that have been "forgotten", just like Gopher. Too bad I 
didn't live the first Gopher era, but I was a bit too young... :)
I set up a gopher server at my place (gopher.sogno.net), and have moved 
into it some files which where only available via http (at 
www.sogno.net); I plan to remove them for the web and to let my visitors 
use hurg.
I still have to learn stuff about .names and other 'modification files', 
since I only know how to set up .links files, but I'll take my time :)
The question is: how wide should I make the text files available via 
gopher? 80 columns?
Yes, I know it's stupid, but you never know... :P

TIA
  Daniele


ps: i'll have a look at pygopherd when school will let me breathe a 
little more :( right now i'm stuck with the revised gopherd..
