It would be sweet if gild could use “raw mode” while reading navigation characters:

1. For starters, display possible selection numbers right-padded with spaces, so that the user doesn't think they have to enter the initial zero, yet still are aligned neatly under each other.
2. In raw mode, all single-char ‘commands’ (even 0) can be immediately fulfilled without having to use ENTER. If the first char is a digit that is not 0, read another char and see if it is also a digit, then wait for ENTER.
3. Having read a complete ‘command’, be it a command or a numerical, you probably want to reset the terminal to ‘cooked mode’ and its original attributes, before acting on the input.

ArchLinux has just updated LDPL from v3.0.5 to v4.4 and now I cannot build gild anymore:

ldpl -i=gild.cpp -o=gild -f="-march=x86-64 -mtune=native -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-plt -Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,-z,now" gild.ldpl
* Loading gild.ldpl
* Compiling gild.ldpl
LDPL Error: Malformed statement (gild.ldpl:85)
make: *** [Makefile:5: gild] Error 1

where

$ cat -n ./src/gild-0.2.0/gild.ldpl | grep '    8[0-9]'
    80	            if lines is greater than window.rows then

    83	            end if
    84	            if char is equal to "\n" then
    85	                add 1 and lines in lines
    86	            end if

    88	            add 1 and index in index
    89	            get character at index from gopher.response in char

I don't know anything about LDPL, so I'm completely at a loss here.

Funny error:

$ gild 'gopher://tilde.town/1/~lucidiot/contact'
bad hostname: Success

I expected gild to accept a valid gopher URL. I can see now that it doesn't.

I know I can

$ gild tilde.town 70 '/~lucidiot/contact'

but it's a bit cumbersome if you're given an URL in an email or a chat – it would be nice to be able to just copy and paste.

And I'm an bit curious: Which “Success” is gild talking about? 😜

It seems gild connects exclusively over IPv4. Please support IPv6.

A friend of mine packed LDPL, LDPL-dev and GILD for AUR!
