to Computerized Archives. Veronica offers a keyword search of
most {gopher} menu titles in the entire gopher web. As
{archie} is to {FTP} archives, Veronica is to {Gopherspace}.
A Veronica search produces a menu of Gopher items, each of
which is a direct pointer to a Gopher data source. Because
Veronica is accessed through a Gopher Client, it is easy to
use, and gives access to all types of data supported by the
Gopher {protocol}.
To try Veronica, select it from the "Other Gophers" menu on
Minnesota's gopher server, or point your gopher at:
