Pygopherd does not have support for Gopher+ forms.  However, it does
have support for basic gopher interactive queries, such as you can see
at gopher://gopher.quux.org:70/1/Reference (hit the "Dictionary
Database, Search" link).

The code behind that is in the pygopherd source tree under
pygfarm/dict.pyg.  The part you are looking for is self.searchrequest.

Also, in handlers/scriptexec.py, pygopherd will set the environment
variable SEARCHREQUEST if you are writing a generic handler in some
other language.
