LA Gopher version 1.0 RELEASE!

Introduction
------------

LA Gopher is a 32-bit Gopher client for IBM OS/2 2.11 (2.1 with CSD) and
TCP/IP version 1.2.1 or later.  IBM currently offers a "free" Gopher client
for OS/2, but it is plagued by poor speed to the point of being almost
unusable (my appologies to David Singer).  LA Gopher is MUCH faster in all
regards.

LA Gopher is the second in my series of TCP/IP improvement for OS/2, and is
similar in presentation and operation to LA Times, my NNTP news reader.


Availabilty
-----------

LA Gopher is distributed as SHAREWARE, meaning that you can try it out free
of charge for 30 days.  You only have to pay if you decide that you want
to keep it.  Please view the help file for information regarding registration
and quantity pricing.  Single copies of LA Gopher are $25US.  If you register
LA Times and LA Gopher at the same time, you can get both for $40US and save
20%.

LA Gopher is available via anonymous FTP from FTP.CDROM.COM, and is temporarily
in the /pub/os2/incoming directory.  It's final home will be
/pub/os2/2_x/network.

feature you would like to see added to the next release:
