Description
The Gopher Book is a Gopher client for Microsoft Windows versions
3.x. The application is based on the Windows Sockets (Winsock)
network API, available from your favorite vendor and, for a limited
time, from Netmange (see note below).
Location
- sunsite.unc.edu pub/micro/pc-stuff/ms-windows/winsock/gophbook.zip
and gophbook.txt.
- ftp.cnidr.org pub/NIDR.tools/Gopher/pc/windows/gophbook.zip
and gophbook.txt. (soon)

Installing The Gopher Book

3) From the Windows Program Manager, select 'File', 'New'.
4) Select 'Group Item' and create a group named "Gopher Book 1.0"

7) Double click on the icon and start Gophering!
More on Winsock
If you're not using Winsock, you're missing the boat in a big
way. Ask your vendor for more info.
Netmanage is providing the base service on a trial basis.
Ftp to sunsite.unc.edu and get netmanage.zip from the
pub/micro/pc-stuff/ms-windows/winsock directory.
Couldn't have done it without
