    Have a look in:  http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/apm

    There are also plenty of "non-official" apm (APM = Arachne Package Manager files = plug-ins),
including a news reader, a comprehensive bookmark and email adress manager, a CD player, and more.
There is even a pdf reader apm, based on Ghostscript 7.05 (for DOS), that worked for me out-of-the-box.

    I have completely lost count of all of them.

Regards,
         Ron
