Most persons are aware of the Gopher via HTTP gateways from such websites as http://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/index.html and http://quux.org:70/

However, unless you viewed gopher://home.jumpjet.info/hh\access.htm recently, you may not have known that there are sites that let you access Gopher without either a Gopher Client or a Web Browser!

If you have Telnet access you can access Gopher via a Telneted Public Lynx Browser: telnet://lynx.scramworks.net/

You will be asked to enter your Email address (their method of preventing abuse), and then your terminal type (I suggest typing "VT100"). You will now have full command of a Lynx Browser (ver 2.8.6 dev 13), which will let you explore both Gopher and web pages.

Alternatively there is a slower method. If you have Email, you can have the output of a Gopher or web URL emailed to you. Send Email to: www4mail@wm.ictp.trieste.it

Leave the subject blank. In the body type two lines. In the first line just enter a "carriage return", and in the second line type GET and the URL: ( GET gopher://home.jumpjet.info ).

The message that comes back to your Inbox will look something like this: =====================================================
