1 Remember gopher? Ikiwiki can be served up by this venerable protocol.
3 It's pretty simple to get it going. Just install pygopherd or another gopher
4 server, and have ikiwiki put its pages where that server expects. For
5 pygopherd, it was in `/var/gopher`.
7 When building the wiki, make sure to specify --no-usedirs (or equivilant in
8 the setup file). Gopher doesn't convert "foo/" links into
9 "foo/index.html", so usedirs won't work well with it; if usedirs is
10 disabled, browsing through the wiki via gopher will work just fine.
12 Since AFAIK gopher has no equivilant to CGI, you'll need to keep a
13 web server around for editing pages. If you do set up a cgi, make sure to
14 configure `url` to something like `gopher://hostname/h/`, so that it
15 links back properly to gopherspace from the CGI.
