NAME

       sfeed_gopher — format feed data to Gopher files

SYNOPSIS

       sfeed_gopher [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       sfeed_gopher  formats  feed  data  (TSV)  from  sfeed(1) from stdin or for each file to stdout in the raw
       Gopher output format.

       If one or more file arguments are specified then the basename of the file is used as the feed name in the
       output.  sfeed_gopher creates an index file named "index" and for each feed it creates a  file  with  the
       same name as the basename of the feed file.

       If  no file arguments are specified and so the data is read from stdin then the data is written to stdout
       and no files are written.

       Items with a timestamp from the last day compared to the system  time  at  the  time  of  formatting  are
       counted  and  marked  as  new.   This value might be overridden through environment variables.  Items are
       marked as new with the prefix "N" at the start of the line.

ENVIRONMENT

       SFEED_GOPHER_PATH
               This environment variable can be used as the prefix for each path in the index file.  The default
               is "/".

       SFEED_GOPHER_HOST
               This environment variable can be used as the Gopher Host field.  The default is "127.0.0.1".

       SFEED_GOPHER_PORT
               This environment variable can be used as the Gopher Port field.  The default is "70".

       SFEED_NEW_AGE
               Overwrite the maximum age in seconds to mark feeds as new.   By  default  this  is  86400,  which
               equals one day.

EXIT STATUS

       The sfeed_gopher utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
