Although not a complete listing, these are the major Marinetti-aware
applications released so far:

Spectrum 2.2:
A full-featured GS/OS telecomm program which now permits up to 32 open
Telnet connections. Information about Spectrum 2.2 can be found on the
following sites:

http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/ewannop/sp.html
http://www.myesource.com/sevenhills/applesoftware/

Crock O' Gold 3.x:
A set of Spectrum based scripts that provides an offline-reader for the
Delphi online system. COG can be downloaded from:

http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/ewannop/dwn.html

Spectrum Internet Suite:
A Spectrum-based web browser that needs to be run from a Shell account.
However, if Marinetti is first used to establish a PPP connection, and
Spectrum is used to open a Telnet connection to your shell account, then
SIS will benefit from the error protection afforded by TCP/IP. Info on
SIS can be found at:

http://www.myesource.com/sevenhills/applesoftware/iigs/sis/

gsAIM:
Sheppy's $10 shareware Instant Messenger program that let's you chat
privately with people who use AOL's Instant Messenger. gsAIM can be
downloaded from:

ftp://ftp.sheppyware.net/pub/apple_iigs/gsaim11.bxy

BTW, the latest issue of the Shareware Solutions II newsletter (available
by subscription only) contains a very long article about setting up and
using all the above software (as well as info on all the other
Marinetti-aware applications). Info on Shareware Solutions II can be
found at:
