  • Gopher Browser TLS Support

    From Gopher Space@21:1/5 to All on Sat Feb 18 15:38:36 2023
    Hello everyone,

    which gopher browsers support TLS?

    I run gophernicus as a server and am currently testing TLS via stunnel on port 7070. So far it works well with the stunnel client (proxy), but I can't find a browser that supports TLS and gopher.


    For example, if I go to the domain https://gopherinc.net:7070 or https://cosmic.voyage:7070 in Firefox 56, I successfully get an encrypted connection with the content of gopher. If I call up the pages with gopher:// then it doesn't work.

    I hoped it would work in Firefox 56 with the overbite ff plugin, but it doesn't.

    Do you have an idea or a tip for me?
    Thanks in advance
    Rene

    gopher://bitreich.org/1/scm/sacc

    They also have a short list of other gopherholes supporting TLS (and Tor).

    Also this one, an interactive Common LISP based client: gopher://bitreich.org/1/scm/clic

    I'm pretty sure that elpher (for emacs) and VF1 (python) also support gopher-over-tls.
