[gopher] Gophernicus Server 0.5 released



Just released Gophernicus Server version 0.5.

gopher://gophernicus.org/1/software/gophernicus/server/

New features:
* gopher++ request header support
* gopher++ TITLE resource support
* charset conversions between US-ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8

I think the biggest feature here is the full support for charset conversions. By default gopher0 clients get everything in look-alike US-ASCII (ä -> a etc), but gopher++ clients can ask for ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 instead. Source material can be in any of the three supported charsets, and best of all the conversion routine is input autoconfiguring. Which means that you can have all three charsets even inside one file and it STILL does the right thing...

Currently there's just one client that works with the gopher++ support, Cameron's Mosaic with my patches on top... Once I get the server finished I'll start working on clients.
