Awesome, this makes me feel like it's 1998 again, in the best possible way :)

To the sibling comment: It's a bit non-obvious indeed. It allows you to use their AV-98 Gemini client. [0] The source seems to be basically the documentation here ;)

Try this:

AV-98> tour gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/

Then add links that you want to visit (they're numbered) with, for example

AV-98> tour 1

and navigate there with

AV-98> tour

There is the Castor[1] GUI client, which ends up being a bit nicer to use. But the protocol draws heavily from Gopher so text-based clients are the default.

What on earth is this kiosk thing? There's no explanation whatsoever. `help` does not do much.
