- Well, the Surfer pack itself includes Voodoo, a GUI'ed mail reader,
- AmIRC, a GUI'ed IRC client, AmFTP, a GUI'ed FTP client, and MindWalker,
- a Web browser.
-
- It also includes GRn 3.0 (a GUI newsreader), GDial (a GUI'ed dialer program),
- GHost (heh - a GUI'ed host program), GFinger (a GUI'ed finger program), GWhois
- (a GUI'ed whois program), WConfig (a GUI'ed configuration program) and a GUI'ed
- version of Login.
-
- That's just in Surfer. In I-Net 225 full, there is also GMail (a "standard"
- folder format mail program), which isn't as full-featured as Voodoo where
- MIME is concerned, but is otherwise fairly powerful.
-
- We estimate close to 1,000 bug fixes and enhancements have been made since
- the base AS225r2 code.
-
- It includes ncftp 1.9.5, commercial versions of all of INetUtils, traceroute,
- and lots of other stuff.
