You will never get the ideal set of applications *you* want anyway > elm, pico, gqview, xv, xawtv, wine and lilo. pico was part of pine and when they changed their licenses it was dropped. grub is better than lilo in many ways. wine was dropped due to "developer restraints", probably a support issue I have already said this but I would repeat again.
