+ An all-new GutenSite
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
| (Or *Gopherhole*, if you prefer.)


+- Tidying things up
| I finally wrote proper `gophermap` files and formatted
| all my old Phlog entries using Gutenborg Protocol.
|
|
| The Republic uses `Gophernicus` as Gopher server and the
| *gophermap* format is different from the one I was
| reasonably used to (`geomyidae`), but, overall, Gopher
| and related tools are usually very simple and easy to
| learn.


+- Learning from using
| I now realize the best way of using the `|` character
| that indicates a paragraph should be displayed with
| varible-length fonts: it is generally connected to a
| header and if your next content is not directly
| related you should use common newlines (not a single `|`
| in the beginning of it).
|
| The objective, remember, is that a GutenSite will
| still look nice when viewed on usual Gopher clients
| and I find this little rule useful for that, since
| it makes paragraphs visually easy to connect to a header
| (because the content **is** also connected) or not.
|
|
| Another thing I realized is that I use *backticks*
| a lot and didn't implemented proper formatting in
| Gutenborg, neither bulleted and numbered lists.
|
| I even tried to use `^* (.+)` right now in my own
| content, but realized Gophernicus handle some cases
| in its own way and, in the end, it's **safer** to
| have a blankspace before the bullet or number, like
| in `^ * (.+)` and `^ 1. (.+)` (the latter for numbered
| lists).


+- I'm very satisfied with my own work
| I'm actually **using** Gutenborg a lot and very
| happy with the visual appearance I get when the
| proper format is used. It's **so** easier to read
| and **so** much more visually pleasant than the usual
| *plain-text style*...
|
|
| It's kind of weird, I admit, and I never fully
| understood this effect: I'm a software developer and
| I **love** to use `vim` as my text editor in a black
| background terminal. But I **can't stand** reading
| "normal" text for too long in it...
|
|
| But, anyway, I'm very happy because I feel I've
| created a nice application.
|
|
| Well, at least for my own usage. :)
