    You can find me at gopher://sdf.org/1/users/taxman

    Expect little and you won't be too disappointed.

    It's a nice start. Certainly isn't taxing the server much (sorry, had to
    make a joke there) but I already like where this one is going :)

    It is very nice ;)

    On another note, when TurboGopher visits an empty index, it displays a
    little sad mac icon next to the message "this index is empty." I'll
    have to take a PICT shot of my screen to show you what I mean.

    Well, I tried to upload it but for some reason Zmodem eats this particular file for breakfast. I have two files in the Internet-Related directory, empty.bin and empty2.bin, that are incomplete files. They can be deleted, they're supposed to be 8K but Zmodem for some reason just gets through 1 or 2K and then thinks the transfer is complete. I'll try X and Ymodem shortly.

    Well three attempts yields three dead files. I'll have to think of
    another way to share that screenshot with you all.

    The three files are in the Internet directory over in the file
    transfers section, but none of them are complete. They can be safely
    deleted.

    I finally got it uploaded in full. empty4.bin has the screenshot in Macintosh PICT format. Syncterm did the trick where Telix failed ;P

    Syncterm would technically be the "best" way to access the BBS - I think it's the most compatible with synchronet by its very root origin. Not the one I prefer appearance wise, however, but what ya gunna do?

    It just kind of sucks that not every client works as well as we would like them to.
