gg
I wasn't satisfied with any of the other available Gemini clients, so I wrote my own. Requires Python 3.9 (maybe older, I haven't checked) and optionally GNU less for scrollable output, although you can use any pager you'd like by setting the GGPAGER
environment variable to your preferred one along with any options for allowing color and horizontal overflow scrolling.
Example:
# ~/.profile
export GGPAGER="less -RS"
gg-view
opens gg
in the pager set in the GGPAGER
environment variable or GNU less if unset. Also included is a desktop file so you can open gemini links from other applications in gg-view
.
You can also set GG_NO_COLOR
to disable formatted output in gg-view
if your preferred pager does not support it. gg
on its own outputs raw, unformatted gemtext unless the --color
flag is specified.
GGCOLUMNS
can be set to override the default wrapping width of 80 columns.
