Is the UM gopher client supposed to be able to natively browse ftp sites? 
Thats the impression I get from the man page but I've tried several times 
w/o luck. Using "f" and entering the anonymous ftp server address returns

 "Cannot connect to host gopher-gw.micro.umn.edu, port 70"

 "Unknown error."

Is there some way to make this work?
