About

gplaces is a light Gemini client with a high power to weight ratio. In a tiny package, it features:

  • A VT100-compatible shell with completion, history and hints
  • .gmi subscriptions
  • TOFU and permanent redirects
  • Generation of client certificates
  • Slightly prettified Gemtext output
  • Configurable handlers for various file types
  • Quick navigation to recently viewed pages
  • Support for other "small internet" protocols: Titan, Spartan, Gopher, Finger and Guppy

gplaces should be fairly straightforward to use for anyone used to the command-line and man pages. Type "readme" for a short introduction.
