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.
