- Is anyone aware of any 'ftp-able' lists or an index of
- public-domain or shareware programs available for the PCs?
-
- I know there are many sites which maintain programs for the PCs
- available via 'anonymous-ftp,' and I know there is a database utility
- (ARCHIE.MCGILL.CA, etc.) which can provide information
- about which 'ftp' sites have which programs. However, it would be
- nice if there were a list of what shareware programs are available and
- what all they do. I suppose requesting a catalog from some of the mail-order
- shareware houses is one solution, but an 'ftp-able' list would be
- preferable.
-
- Many thanks!
