I can't see any packages listed in his guide, only two alien programs (nano
and screen). I suppose you mean the installation sets.
Well, you'll need a good editor, so install pico or nano (haven't tried nano,
but if it's a pico clone, I suppose it's good). And a good mailer, so install
Pine, which includes pico. That takes care of the editor problem. Lynx is a
bit on the heavy side, but could be quite useful, not in the last until you
get X up and running (which hasn't been difficult on mac68k in my experience).
I can't really find anything genuinely useful on my main BSD machine
otherwise.

For a browser, I run Mosaic, which, in a word, is awful. Is there anything
better which would run on mac68k?
