[gopher] About Gopher



Hi,

I have subscribed to this list for a while now, and I have read about 
many things I dont really know anything about. Anyway, my question is, 
is there any resource I can read to learn about some of the basic 
principles/rationale that went into the development of gopher code and 
logic, and also about some of these more advanced gopher-specific 
concepts and terms that are discussed by gopher developers. I would like 
to get a handle on these things, a feel for the essence of gopher, if 
you will, that the man files do not present, so that I may be helpful in 
the future. It would also be good if there is a comprehensive page on 
how every bit of gopherd works, how to make a config file that works for 
what you want (yes, man and the sample help some, but I want more detail 
I guess), but maybe more what I am asking is about the other files (I am 
not too clear on all this, but maybe such things as the menu files) that 
go into making menus and a lovely gopher site. Thanks for any direction 
you guys can give!
