# 2025-11-10 - Convert Geomyidae And Gophernicus Gophermap Format
Recently i wanted to convert between geomyidae and gophernicus
gophermaps. They are both simple formats, so it is fairly
simple to do in AWK. Here are scripts to convert in both
directions.
TEXT gph2map.awk
TEXT map2gph.awk
Even more minimal would be to have curl and geomyidae do the
work for you. For example, this log entry is served from tilde.pink,
which runs geomyidae.
$ URL="gopher://tilde.pink/1/~bencollver/log/2025-11-10-convert-"
$ URL="${URL}geomyidae-and-gophernicus-gophermap-format/"
$ curl -s -o gophermap "$URL"
To convert the entire phlog to gophermap format, you could use my
gopher-get.tcl script.
$ tclsh gopher-get.tcl "gopher://tilde.pink/1/~bencollver/log/"
TEXT gopher-get.tcl
Note that gopher-get.tcl depends on TclCurl. For a Slackware
source package, see:
BIN tclcurl.tgz
