GopherApp is an Internet information service program for Macintosh computers. It provides a Finder-like link to the range of Internet Gopher services. GopherApp is being written by Don Gilbert, using the MacApp extensible Macintosh programming framework from Apple Computer. It is actually a subset of a biosequence analysis program called SeqApp. To use GopherApp, your Mac must have a network connection to the Internet, and it must have MacTCP installed and operating (as with NCSA Telnet, Eudora, network news and similar MacTCP-based Internet programs). You may obtain GopherApp thru anonymous ftp to ftp.bio.indiana.edu, in folder /util/gopher, as gopherapp.hqx. You may also obtain updates using Gopher to this same IUBio archive (host=ftp.bio.indiana.edu, port=70). Look for a folder called "IUBio Software+Data/GopherApp" GopherApp.Help is a plain text file which may be read from your favorite wordprocessor. If you have problems getting GopherApp to launch, please read GopherApp.Help. GopherApp works on all Mac models from Mac+, with System 7 and System 6 software. Programmers with MPW Pascal and C and MacApp 2.x libraries may obtain source for GopherApp as "gopherapp-src.hqx" next to the GopherApp application above.
