Gday, Is there someone out there who has python skills, who would like
to patch a python script for me in pygopherd?

I'll explain.

I am building a Gopher site currently and I would like to add a hit
counter. A mate gave me his script for a gopher counter which belongs
on the main page.
Alas, It (and other main-page-scripts) require -as bucktooth
does- that the main gophermap be executable.
Pygopherd doesn't seem to implement bucktooth-style scripts fully ie
wont allow my scripts to be bash script-gophermap hybrids.
Is there anyone out there who would patch the executable gophermap
python script for me?
Id be really grateful!
I can supply all scripts, eg's and docs(pretty thin for pygopherd- it
relies on most dox as REM's in the source)

I don't really understand what you're trying to obtain...
Maybe it would help if you could post somewhere your hit counter.

What do you mean exactly by "bash script-gophermap"?

As far as I understand, it seems that you simply need to turn your main
gophermap into a bash script, which will echo's the gopher content of your
gophermap, and add in on point the output of your hit counter...

Best regards,

someone to modify a small script in pygopherd source so that it can
behave like bucktooth _does_ in that a gophermap can also be an
executable bash script at the same time. bash executes the embedded
bash scripting, and pygopherd reads and renders the gophermap.
referred to as an executable gophermap.
