[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
The regex in
browse-url-button-regexp
does not recognise the gophers:// protocol. Similarly to https://,
gophers:// is an encrypted variant of the venerable Gopher protocol.
The gophers protocol is supported in curl and other programs that build
on libcurl, and while I can customize `browse-url-button-regexp` myself,
I think it would be useful for all Emacs users if Emacs recognised
gophers:// directly.
A fix is simple: just add 's?' after 'gopher' in the regexp.

Thanks for the bug report.
I see that it is supported by libcurl, here: https://curl.se/libcurl/
There is also FTPS, which we don't have in our regexp.
So I've now fixed this on the master branch (commit 9e2d5a013c9), and
I'm closing this bug.
