- This application lets your Mac function as a Gopher
- server.
-
- To run this software you will need the have MacTCP
- installed on your Macintosh. You will have to configure
- MacTCP so that your Mac has a static IP address; you
- will also need to register a name for your Macintosh
- with your local domain name system. Once you launch the
- Gopher program your Macintosh is an internet Gopher
- server. While running as a server, your Mac will make
- everything in the folder the Gopher was run from
- available to Gopher clients. Note that you can either
- run the Gopher server in the foreground under Finder
- (before System 7) or in the background (MultiFinder or
- System 7).
-
- The Gopher's Helper is a hypercard 2.0 stack that can be
- used to easily attach long names to files and
- directories and establish links to entities that either
- are on other gopher servers or are pointers (links) to
- index servers, CSO nameservers, and the like. See the
- internet Gopher Protocol document for more information
- about valid types of internet gopher entities.
