Since this part of the forum hasn't seen that much use lately, I thought I'd shamelessly advertise my Shell Gopher client. It's available at:

http://vps.iotek.org/~dami/gits.tar

There is currently no actual manpage but you can get usage info from my gopherhole at gopher://slienz.it:/gits on port 70, either through the gopher client itself or just plain old netcat (echo "/gits" | nc slienz.it 70), it's what my script uses anyway.

Feel free to send suggestions or nitpicking.
