    In our Gopher gopher://shibboleths.org you can directly download the latest actual programs for your Windows9x - XP. You can download USB/NTFS drivers for Windows 95/98, office suites for working with DocX, XlsX files in Windows 9x, browsers for Windows 9x with support for TLS 1.2-1.3, patches to support modern hardware in Windows 9x, 2000, XP. As well as a lot of Gopher clients and other useful programs. You can download all this directly through Internet Explorer up to version 6.0 without making any updates to your legacy hardware and industial equipent.
    Everything is combined in one place so that owners of legacy Windows 9x-NT systems can immediately get started without searching for the necessary current solutions on different Web sites. Gopher allows you to boot directly from Internet Explorer, giving you the time savings you need and access to the global web without the latest Chrome browsers.

    Check this gopher/gemini client for WXP:

    gopher://texto-plano.xyz/1/~anthk/bfgxp

    The help file states that you just
    unzip it and launch "lanzar.bat".
    Sorry, the launcher name it's
    in Spanish but I did it in a hurry.

    If it needs updated certs for Gemini,
    you can get those at http://legacyupdate.net

    Gopher works as is. Images are best downloaded
    with the right click button of a link.
    If you know TCL/Tk, you can write a quick image
    opener in a breeze with a quick regex on the
    link and some Tk functions. No more than 10 lines.
