Opening of the first modules a new Gemini station

[Frank Jüdes]

Hi friends!

sorry for the non-functional box utility! /boxes/ is using the file //usr/share/boxes/boxes/ on my development-system (Oracle Linux 7.9) to store the box design-definitions, whereas on the production-server (Centos 8.2) the filename is//usr/share/boxes/ instead. Had to add a couple of lines to the perl program to determine the correct filename and now it works:

gemini://h2903872.stratoserver.net/cgi-bin/boxes/Another%20visitor!%5CnStay%20a%20while...%5Cnstay%20FOREVER!!!

Already in the shipyard are the modules for number-conversions (Dec/Hex/Oct/Bin/...), URL (un-)quote, Binary to text encoding (uuencode, baseXX, etc), Hashes

Stay in orbit!
