Important!

Also, this index only covers applications running 'Native' under Linux - not those under the * iBCS2 (SCO et al) emulation, the *DOS or the *WINE emulator.
Of course, this page doesn't list free software either and you are well advised to look through the freebies first. In some areas you get some pleasant suprises! A very complete list of *scientific software is maintained by hjjou@kachinatech.com.
