Here in comp.emulators.mac.executor, Jered Floyd <jered@mit.edu> spake

I have a fairly extensive list of software here, but I'm mainly only
keeping track of the following info for each program (example):

Utilities that work        Description
-------------------        -----------
Disinfectant 3.6           Excellent Macintosh Virus Scanner - FW
ftp://ftp.ou.edu/mirrors/info-mac/_Anti-Virus/disinfectant-36.hqx

MacDOS 3.0                 DOS Prompt for Mac <g> - SW $40
ftp://ftp.ou.edu/mirrors/info-mac/_Disk_%26_File/mac-dos-30.hqx

Tex-Edit 2.7.2             Text Editor - SW $5
ftp://ftp.ou.edu/mirrors/info-mac/_Text_Processing/tex-edit-272.hqx

BBEdit Lite 3.51           Highly Extensible Text Editor - FW
ftp://ftp.ou.edu/mirrors/info-mac/_Text_Processing/bbe/bbedit-lite-351.

<etc.>

I think I have about 20 apps and about 35 games with this kind of info,
though I'm missing the FTP sites and precise filenames for some of them,
and the last time I tested some of these may be as far back as the early
1.99Q bleeding-edge releases (I don't have the beta yet).

Anyway - I submitted Glypha III and Shatterball to your web site a
long time ago, but I have so much info now that I don't want to type
them all in one at a time into a form.  :-)

How can we deal with this?  Could I mail you the list and have you do
the work?  <grin>
