Re: [LUG] big list of cool software?

Forgot to mention that, out of curiosity, I recently fished out my old
(16bit) copy of Idealist and tried it under Wine.  Seemed to run very
well, although I have to admit that I did not give it a thorough
work-out.

yes.  I have not had it running under CodeWeavers, and the vrsion I did run 
it under was spitting out a steady run of error messages in the underlying 
console window.  But seeming to work OK.

I do that, but I don't think I can currently ask my staff to do it.

For my own scratchpad I use zwiki (a wiki which
runs on a Zope installation ) - works for me!

I'm keen on wiki, I think the concept is vry good, very important,
not quite such a step as teh invetion of the spreadsheet was but
certainly important.

But I have not done well at setting it up myself.  Yet.
That would be a possibility I agree, for general use, but the
searching is less quick than Idealist.

I looked at Mifluz, which was a budding off of the actual search
core from Ht/Dig, and at mg which is a system deveoped partly in the
digital library of New Zealand standing for "manage gigabytes"

These have possibilities.

Interesting - must check them out...  In a couple of weeks, when I come
back off holiday :)
