The gopher+_string for a URL that refers to an item referenced by a Gopher+ electronic form (an ASK block) filled out with specific values is a coded version of what the client sends to the server. The gopher+_string is of the form:
+%091%0D%0A+-1%0D%0A<ask_item1_value>%0D%0A<ask_item2_value>%0D%0A.%0D%0A
To retrieve this item, the Gopher client sends:
<a_gopher_selector><tab>+<tab>1<cr><lf> +-1<cr><lf> <ask_item1_value><cr><lf> <ask_item2_value><cr><lf> .<cr><lf>
to the Gopher server.
