New server

I really like that there are people making gemini servers, but if you 
use escape codes it looks like spaghetti on some clients where text is 
just text and nothing more.

This is brilliant, cat. I love everything about it. I'm listening to 
Side A now and really into it.

Having content available on the protocol that isn't ABOUT the protocol 
is key to its success. I really appreciate your work on that front and 
everyone else that journals or otherwise shares information.

As for the escape codes & color... I'm all for it. I love to see 
boundaries pushed for creativity. Will it mess up in some clients? Sure. 
But it's still awesome fun.

  
  
  
    
    	Awesome place you made cat! I?m all for supporting colors too. Now I 
have some cool work to do to support escape codes in Asuka.

I love it, I?m pretty hyped for the next release!

This is very beautiful - wow <3
I hope I'll have the time to dive into the topic the next days.
I'm really fascinated :-)

It was thus said that the Great Cat once stated:

  Very cool!  I didn't even realize you were using terminal escape codes
because I strip those out before displaying text (I do that because 1, I
don't want the screen to get messed up or put into an unknown state and 2,
it could be a security issue [1]).

[1]	ANSI.SYS, from MS-DOS, added support for terminal escape sequences,
	but they also allowed one to redefine the keys on the keyboard. 
	Handy, until some random cracker sends you a specially crafted file
	to remap the keyboard ...

Beautiful music.

Site looks great in dillo-gemini after passing the page through ansi2html [1].

Yes, this is exactly right, and I'm super excited to see something like
this appear in Geminispace.  I hope it is a harbinger of more things to
come.  I've been far too busy prepraing for a move later this month to
spend much time on Gemini things lately, but I am slowly testing the
planned sftp-based hosting at gemini.circumlunar.space.  I plan to set
up a photography phlog, err, photography glog (?) of my own there next
year, to provide some non-technical Gemini-only content.  Thanks, cat,
for showing the way!

Cheers,

I?m also planning to make a mirror of my portfolio on gemini, I have to
read a bit more on gemini?s specs and make some experimentations on
a local machine. This new server really inspired me!

Cheers,

I love this idea!  I also love that it showed up 2 shortcommings of
my client straight up - the ansi codes (I've sworn off terminal
emulators) and downloading of largish files.  Super-valuable info on
both counts.

I'm looking forward to enjoying the tunes once I've managed fixed the
second issue. :-)

Thanks for sharing! Will listen to this later today.

After cat-ing you frontpage into a terminal I agree that Your landing page 
looks awesome, also nice work with the mixtape.
I enjoyed both sides and am looking forward to the next one.

I was actually astonished when I first visited the site (I hope cat
publishes some heavy metal, actually ;) ).

When it first came up in Elpher I thought, WTF? this looks like ANSI art
in a terminal that doesn't support it, then realized it basically was lol.

It doesn't have to. With respect to my earlier post a few mins ago,
here's three FOSS examples of how it can be, and has been for decades,
supported without any brain pain:

https://enigma-bbs.github.io/

https://github.com/wwivbbs/wwiv

https://gitlab.com/magickabbs


Some BBSes support ANSI, some don't. Some terminal clients, including
both Telnet and SSH support it, and some don't. Historic anecdotal
evidence suggests it hasn't broken anything :)

It would be my absolute pleasure. Stay tuned.
