noun. 1) a conduit for Gopher, 2) WordPress to Gopherspace bridge.

== Description ==

Almost all web browsers have abandoned Gopher; access to Gopherspace now requires a bridge - a Gopherduct.

The plugin allows easy access to your Gopherhole from within WordPress.

**This is a Beta version.** "It Works For Me", but there are almost certainly bugs.

= Features =

**Gopherspace**

The Gopherspace URL is appended to the HTTP URL (e.g. `/gopherspace/0/my/foo/bar.md`) so you can link directly from HTTP-space.

Gophermaps are rendered as a table with some basic styling; in future this will change to allow better integration with themes.

Currently implements only the basics - File, Directory (local only), HTML.

Next up will be Images, then Search.

**Markdown**

Files with an `.md` extension will be rendered as Markdown - no configuration necessary!

**robots.txt**

Gopherduct doesn't yet do anything clever with the Gopherspace `robots.txt` file; for now, please remember to adjust your WordPress `robots.txt` file to preserve any exclusions etc.

== Installation ==

Gopherduct requires the cURL PHP extension.

* Install the plugin (plugin directory, zip upload, shout at your webmaster, whatever)
* Create a page with the slug `gopherspace` (technically it can be anything with the right slug, but for most themes the page template is most suitable)
* Add the shortcode `[gopherspace hole="my.gopher.hole"]` (note the lack of `gopher://`)

**Specify your own Gopherhole** - it is extremely impolite to send unannounced visitors to someone else's Gopherhole!
