As is the gopher service, which is a shame.

Thanks for the bug report. Should be ok now!

This awk contraption is launched by inetd, and there's not much of any kind of sanity checks for anything. As a result, there was around ten thousand processes running :)

And also, thanks for showing interest. I'll push the source code on the website on the weekend.

Up and running. Seems that the Gophernicus didn't appreciate the ten thousand awks reserving all the available memory..

If you have any ideas of the content I should push there, let me know.
