This page tests all the features of gemtext as implemented on drawk.cab.

This is a new line. There's an extra line break below this line.

Extra features of this website

These are conventions I adopt in my gemtext files to improve the experience of web browsers.

Gemini clients will ignore these and display them as plain text, as they should.

This section will get stripped out of the HTML version of the site. To be honest I'd like to have this in standard Gemtext, so that I can use the same file from beginning to end. Processing something else into Gemtext feels wrong. But when whole pages never get published because I'm not happy with some little thing. So for the moment Gemini users get to see all my half-baked thoughts.

a web link with text long enough to run onto a second line (with something in brackets that should also be displayed)

a local static text file (also)

a gemini link (also)

a blank line in a list of links starts a new block

but without a blank line no new block

Fancy image handling

If the first line is an image, then it's used as the cover/hero image.

Links to local images are inlined, with the link-text as the caption.

Note: Just JPEG and PNG images at the moment. (BTW this is an aside, as are to-do-items.)

This paragraph is smaller than the image that follows it. That's going to have to be dealt with editorially.

a photo immediately after some text goes in the right column

These paragraphs are bigger.

Now there are a bunch of images in a row. Blank lines between consecutive images determine whether they go in the main or aside column.

If the link-text for a link interpreted as an image ends with a phrase in round brackets, then this phrase moves into the image's alt text.

a photo with a full description for assistive technologies and other interested clients (The Annapurna range seen from Australian Camp, near Pokhara, at dawn. Tents and cabins surround a central field. Machapuchchhre is the pointed peak at the centre.)

in the main column (with a broken alt text

this is paired with the following

and underneath that

Cross-protocol links

If I link to a gemini capsule then most browsers won't be able to follow the link. Some domains serve both Gemini and HTTP/HTML, which allows protocol-agnostic links to work. But fixing up the same domain name to serve both protocols isn't always easy, and not everyone cares to have a HTML mirror of their gemini capsule, far from it. So I should provide a protocol hint, like a special icon or something.

an agnostic link to a gemini capsule and web site sharing the same address

a link to a gemini capsule that isn't mirrored in this way

To-do list

I'm using tiny RICE to help me order these. That's where the numbers come from.

Tiny RICE

TODO: 12 (3122) _Emphasized phrases_. I've already used them. But I don't need separate bold and italic.

TODO: 22 (3122) _Monospaced phrases_ inside paragraphs, `like this` or the one above.

TODO: 2 (1121) _Browser tests_ with Histoire or Storybook. Not sure the site is complex enough for these. But it might be cool.

Link dump

Because links can't go in asides. I don't think there's a good way to do that whilst keeping the format readable. It's not super important.

Storybook

Histoire
