- Most of the answers were interested in the result, only two answers
- named a package (both commercial), archie knows some packages with
- `hyper' in their name (obviously for amiga, apple2, MS-DOS,
- GNU-emacs). I haven't copied any of them , so I can't comment on them.

- It isn't public domain, but it is rather inexpensive and it is good:
- HyperWriter! by NTERGAID. Their phone number is (203) 380-1280. The
- FAX number is 380-1465. If you would like more information on the software,
- I am working on my master's thesis and using their software to build the
- hypermedia documents, and I could help you.

- Check out our product MetaCard. It has a Motif interface, and support
- for hypertext with multiple fonts, sizes, styles, and colors. The
- engines are freely distributable (no runtime royalties). You can
- anonymously FTP a save disabled distribution from ftp.metacard.com
- (directory MetaCard), world.std.com (directory pub/MetaCard), or
- ftp.uu.net (directory vendor/MetaCard). We can also email this
- distribution or send it out on floppies (free, of course). I've
- enclosed the marketing blurb.
