Remarks

The GopherClient class enables the application to search a Gopher server for a specific document or resource and return that information to the client. The Gopher protocol pre-dates the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) that is used with the World Wide Web and is similar in a number of ways. Resources returned by the Gopher server may be text files, as well as binary executables, image files and encoded file archives.
