 From the user's perspective **the most important distinction from the Web** is that gopher is based on **menus** instead of "webpages"; a menu is simply a column of items of different predefined types, most importantly e.g. a *text file* (which clients can directly display), *directory* (link to another menu), *text label* (just shows some text), *binary file* etc. A menu can't be formatted or visually changed, there are no colors, images, scripts or [hypertext](hypertext.md) -- a menu is not a presentation tool, it is simply a navigation node towards files users are searching for (but the mentioned ASCII art and label items allow for somewhat mimicking "websites" anyway). Gopher is also often **browsed from the [command line](cli.md)**, though graphical clients are a thing too. Addressing works with [URLs](url.md) just as the Web, the URLs just differ by the protocol part (`gopher://` instead of `http://`), e.g.: `gopher://gopher.floodgap.com:70/1/gstats`. What on Web is called a "website" on gopher we call a **gopherhole** or just *hole* (i.e. a collection of resources usually under a single [domain](domain.md)) and the whole gopher network is called a **gopherspace**. [Blogs](blog.md) are common on gopher and are called **phlogs** (collectively a *phlogosphere*). As menus can refer to one another, gopher creates something akin a **global [file system](file_system.md)**, so browsing gopher is like browsing folders and can comfortably be handled with just 4 arrow keys. Note that as menus can link to any other menu freely, the structure of the "file system" is not a [tree](tree.md) but rather a general [graph](graph.md). Another difference from the Web is gopher's great emphasis on **[plaintext](plaintext.md) and [ASCII art](ascii_art.md)** as it cannot embed images and other media in the menus (even though of course the menus can link to them). There is also a support for sending text to a server so it is possible to implement [search engines](search_engine.md), guest books, [games](game.md) etc.
 
-Gopher is just an [application layer](l7.md) [protocol](protocol.md) (officially running on [port](port.md) 70 assigned by [IANA](iana.md)), i.e it sits above lower layer protocols like [TCP](tcp.md) and takes the same role as [HTTP](http.md) on the Web and so only defines how clients and servers talk to each other -- the gopher protocol doesn't say how menus are written or stored on servers. Nevertheless for the creation of menus so called **gophermaps** have been established, which is a simple format for writing menus and are the gopher equivalent of Web's [HTML](html.md) files (just much simpler, basically just menu items on separate lines, the exact syntax is ultimately defined by server implementation). A server doesn't have to use gophermaps, it may be e.g. configured to create menus automatically from directories and files stored on the server, however gophermaps allow users to write custom menus manually. Typically in someone's gopherhole you'll be served a welcoming intro menu similar to a personal webpage that's been written as a gophermap, which may then link to directiories storing personal files or other hand written menus. Some gopher servers also allow creating dynamic content with scripts called **moles**.

 **Gopher [software](software.md)**: sadly "[modern](modern.md)" browsers are so modern they have millions of lines of code but can't be bothered to support such a trivial protocol like gopher, however there are Web proxies you can use to explore gopherspace (look up e.g. floodgap). Better browsers such as [lynx](lynx.md) (terminal), [sacc](sacc.md), [clic](clic.md) or [forg](forg.md) ([GUI](gui.md)) can be used for browsing gopherspace natively (it's not hard, you don't need to learn any keybinds, using arrow keys usually just works). As a server you may use e.g. Gophernicus (used by [SDF](sdf.md)) or search for another one, there are dozens. { Personally I've used gophrier for server, it was the simplest one I found. ~drummyfish } For the creation of gophermaps you simply use a plaintext editor. **Where to host gopher?** [Pubnixes](pubnix.md) such as [SDF](sdf.md), [tilde.town](tilde_town.md) and [Circumlunar community](circumlunar.md) offer gopher hosting but many people simply [self-host](self_hosting.md) servers e.g. on [Raspberry Pis](rpi.md), it's pretty simple.

 More technical details: just as with the web, you have some gopher [server](server.md) running somewhere (some [IP address](ip_address.md)/[domain](domain.md), on [port](port.md) 70) which serves resources to [clients](client.md). A client connects to the server (via [TCP](tcp.md)) and simply sends the name of the resource (file or directory) it wants to retrieve as a [string](string.md) ending with a newline. If the string is empty, the server sends the default directory (the "main page"). You may try this manually in terminal using [telnet](telnet.md), [nc](nc.md) or a similar tool. For example:
 
 ```
-echo "" | nc floodhap.com 70
+echo "" | nc floodgap.com 70
 ```
 
 The server just sends us back a list of available resources in the "main directory", one per line, each in format:

 Here `1` says the resource is a directory, then we have a display string (which you'll see in the browser), then the path to the resource, i.e. `/v2`, and then the server and port. If we want to retrieve this directory, we send:
 
 ```
-echo "/v2" | nc floodhap.com 70
+echo "/v2" | nc floodgap.com 70

 And get a similar response. This is basically all a client needs to know.
 
-As for running a server, details depend on each one, but generally they behave like this: you have a server running in some default directory, let's say `/home/me/my_gopherhole`. By default a server will just serve list of files present in this directory to clients who request the "main directory", treating directories as subdirectories and sending regular files back. However there is one important feature: you may create a **gophermap file** to create a custom menu, or something aking a "gopher website". Gophermap is something like gopher's [HTML](html.md), just much more simple. How to do this? You simply create a file name `gophermap` in the directory (the main one or any subdirectory) -- if the server sees such a file, it serves it instead of listing the directory file.
