`phroxy` is a small, multi-threaded web server that proxies Gopher
requests through HTTP. It's meant to be run locally and was written
for [gogo](https://github.com/dvkt/gogo), a WebKit Gopher client.

Run it in a terminal then visit the local URL in your favorite web
browser to burrow through the Gophersphere with ease.

## credits

phroxy's design is based on 
[phetch](https://github.com/dvkt/phetch)
and inspired by
[Gaufre](https://gitlab.com/commonshost/gaufre).

The proxy idea comes from older gopher/web proxy sites like
https://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/.

It was made for gogo, which was inspired by lartu's
[OpenNapkin](https://github.com/Lartu/OpenNapkin) client.
