I'm reviving my #gopher project. It initially died in the early stages because @SDF.ORG wouldn't allow me to run #commonLisp in my
.../cgi-bin. I've recently discovered that I can run #awk there, so I'm building a minimal DSL in awk and building it with that.reshared this

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • •The first thing I want to do be able to have an accessible version that strips out ASCII art and replaces it with alt text so that I'm not assaulting the ears of people using screen readers.
Acessibility never seems to be a priority in most gopher holes, which is a shame, because it could be such an accessible protocol.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • •@Digital Mark λ ☕️ 8647 I do plan on doing a total re-do of my personal web site though. I want to build a server in Common Lisp that takes a markdown-esque source and simultaneously serves it up as web, gopher, and gemini.
That one's been on my to-do list forever, though.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • • •What CL were you trying to run? CLISP is small enough, I rarely had problems running it in CGI environments. If it's still too big, you could always try islisp, where the main implementation is <500kb
(not to discourage you from awk if you're enjoying it)
