okay, in bash i have a gopher server :)

yes it could still be nice with termux hooks for make export tarball of current home dir so it can be restored withing termux on another android device, this is why i dont use termux so much

its soda-pop for me :)

 MK>>> I believe this beats gopher.  :-)
 BP>> not yet
 MK> Prove it.

i have got new perl version today, had to unmerge 300 ebuilds first, then perl-cleaner --all, and later emerge all the unmerged ebuilds again, this time it was just 220 new ebuilds to be merged, i really more need a ryzen 7 at home to precompile all the ebuilds, it takes time on linode.com servers sadly, but could be solved if i had more money to spend on it services

 MK> I have yet to see a msg coming from your gopher feed.

you will have to wait long for that since gopher is read only server

 MK> That 
 MK> means that as things stand today WeBeBashing is VASTLY superior as 
 MK> this reply will attest to.

cat 2 dog in bash is simple :)

 MK> You have a long ways to go just to catch

i dont belive slackware would ever be better then gentoo, only see windows make money to the poor, while hold most money to the banks is imho not a great way to help the poor, and who knows what happen with Bill's devorce now

 BP>> make it on termux

keep up the spirit
