Filerunner works quite well. I use it to work on my web page. Available
from sunsite I think. I use it mostly for uploading. Netscape does most
of my downloads.

I use Jazz to edit midi files, but it won't play them. I use the kde
midi player to play the files after I edit them with jazz. Some of those
keyboards are WS-WIN only unless it's a midi keyboard maybe... Not my
area.

Depends on what you want to do. For basic WYSIWYG HTML editting,
netscape communicator is quite adequate.

Staroffice is quite nice but it's a big download and takes a lot of
resources and it's fairly slow. Still worth having, tho. For most of my
work I use Lyx (or the qt version Klyx) for the bulk of my wordpro work
as it has a lot of features and it's much much quicker. Then for
spreadsheet work I use Xesslite.
