+<para>
+<command>gopher</command> began as a distributed campus information service
+at the University of Minnesota. Gopher allows the user to access information
+on Gopher servers running on Internet hosts.</para>
+
+<para>
+Gopher is an Internet information browsing service that uses a menu-driven
+interface. Users select information from menus, which may return another
+menu or display a text file. An item may reside on a Gopher server you
+originally queried, or it may be on another Gopher server (or another host).
+Gopher can <quote>tunnel</quote> from one Gopher to another without the
+user knowing that the server and/or host machine have changed. Gopher keeps
+the exact location of computers hidden from the user, providing the
+<quote>illusion</quote> of a single, large set of interconnected menus.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Gopher permits the user to record an item's location in a
+<quote>bookmark</quote> thereby allowing users to follow a
+<quote>bookmark</quote> directly to a particular item without
+searching the menu system. Gopher menus are not standardized, inasmuch as
+each Gopher server is individually determined.
