Gopher: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 13:27, 3 June 2021

The Gopher protocol is a communications protocol designed for distributing, searching, and retrieving documents in Internet Protocol networks. The design of the Gopher protocol and user interface is menu-driven, and presented an alternative to the World Wide Web in its early stages, but ultimately fell into disfavor, yielding to the HTTP.

The Gopher protocol was first described in RFC 1436.
