+gopher + + +&Lauri.Watts; &Lauri.Watts.mail; + + + + + +gopher began as a distributed campus information service +at the University of Minnesota. Gopher allows the user to access information +on Gopher servers running on Internet hosts. + + +Gopher is an Internet information browsing service that uses a menu-driven +interface. Users select information from menus, which may return another +menu or display a text file. An item may reside on a Gopher server you +originally queried, or it may be on another Gopher server (or another host). +Gopher can tunnel from one Gopher to another without the +user knowing that the server and/or host machine have changed. Gopher keeps +the exact location of computers hidden from the user, providing the +illusion of a single, large set of interconnected menus. + + + +Gopher permits the user to record an item's location in a +bookmark thereby allowing users to follow a +bookmark directly to a particular item without +searching the menu system. Gopher menus are not standardized, inasmuch as +each Gopher server is individually determined. + + + +Source: + http://tlc.nlm.nih.gov/resources/tutorials/internetdistlrn/gophrdef.htm + +
