using a client-server communications model. The Internet Gopher
Server accepts simple queries, and responds by sending the client a
document.

Minnesota's Internet Gopher+ distribution for UNIX machines.
University of Minnesota actively developed this software until 1995.

License. This represents the latest version of their tree, as adopted
by a group of programmers. A client for VMS is included but is not
currently supported.
