knusbaum / cl-gopher Goto Github PK

Nyxt is using this library for its Gopher support, and I realized I couldn't access any (admittedly few) Tor onion sites, such as gopher://gnr2pc7do3kxgj2r4awdpcg5inaxrqb3tbfii7ubjhkdbzl7xuom5gyd.onion or gopher://magicalxot2nosefso27zfzuujuaphtznzn3ng7q44u426s6bkiuvzqd.onion. I've traced it to with-gopher-socket-for-selector where it uses usocket to lookup DNS records, which would obviously fail since Tor uses its own domain resolution scheme.

Should I report this further upstream to usocket? I'm not sure what the best solution for a workaround would be in the meantime. Whatever solution we come up with, it would be good to make it generic enough so that, say, I2P or IPFS support could easily be added. I know gopher://khzae.net at least used to have I2P support. It still has an aforementioned v3 onion address.

P.S. how might I make a clickable Gopher URL in GFM?
