E-mail is still being worked on (I'm sorry it is taking so long but
paying my bills takes priority unfortunately).
gwFTP has actually been released but it is only available on Delphi as
far as I know. I believe it is a beta release because it still has a
small problem where your machine locks up when you close a connection
to an FTP site.
Marinetti comes with a simple telnet client but Spectrum v2.2 is a
much more powerful program that can be used for both serial and TCP/IP
connections. This means that on the surface, Spectrum v2.2 is a
telnet client but with the incredibly powerful scripting language in
Spectrum, it can be a whole lot more. Spectrum Interent Suite, a web
browser with some limitations, is one example. I also use a set of
scripts called Crock O'Gold to capture message from Delphi for me
using a TCP/IP connection so I can read and reply at my leisure.
gsAIM is an AOL Instant Messenger client that was released at the same
time as gwFTP (Christmas Eve 1998). This NDA allows you to chat with
other AIM users, be they using a IIgs, Mac or PC, from within any
properly written IIgs desktop application. This program is a $10 US
shareware.
I believe gwPing, gwFinger and gwWhois are also available for
Marinetti v2.0 as well.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head but I think that is
all that is currently available.
