BTW, for fun, with XGopher, Gopher or Mosaic, head to gopher://hngopher.com Also, if you want a 'modern' Motif desktop mimicking the mid-90's, install emwm, xfile, classic-colors, xpdf (the old Motif) one, XImaginag and Nedit for XFT. https://fastestcode.org/emwm.html For a 'browser' you can use BFG, it runs gopher/gemini and gopher://magical.fish,
gemini://gemi.dev and gopher://hnhgopher.com will look fine: https://codeberg.org/luxferre/BFG For IRC and Usenet, just use any terminal IRC client against libera.chat (it will look the exact same under XTerm) and... SLRN against the servers from https://eternal-september.org And, as for Emacs, just install/build Lucid Emacs, get a nice Unicode font such as Go for sans as monospaced variants, it will look 100% close to Lucida fonts. At ~/.Xdefaults: emacs.pane.menubar.font: Go-9
emacs.font: Go-9
emacs.fontSet: Go-9 At ~/.emacs: (set-face-attribute 'default nil :family "Terminus" :height 100)
;; Proportionately spaced typeface
(set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil :family "Go" :height 1.0)
;; Monospaced typeface
(set-face-attribute 'fixed-pitch nil :family "Terminus" :height 1.0)
Terminus is not Artwiz, but it's good enough.Oh, 'links -g' can open HN perfectly fine,fore sure. Not so mid-90's, but close. |
