An email client.
POP3, APOP, IMAP4rev1, mh, SMTP, SMTP AUTH, NNTP, SSL/TLS, OpenPGP, external editors, filtering, muliple identities. Good multilanguage and character set support.
Sylpheed is bafflingly bad in places, and Claws Mail was a welcome improvement. This relationship reminds me a lot of PCManFM versus PCManFM-mod (which later became SpaceFM).

A console text editor.
Jed does radical new things, such as allowing the user to use tab to insert a “tab” character. It represents an incredible new frontier of usability. Oh, and it has a menu, like any real program would.
Unfortunately, it’s misconfigured and there are no clues as to how to fix it. So it’s useless.
 Yeah this is a shit image, but I’m too lazy to capture my own.

http://www.smalltalk.org/
A programming language.
Smalltalk is intriguing. Very intriguing. I was turned onto this while Ruby was a live project, where the rabbit hold led me to Seaside.
Smalltalk leads to Squeak, the open source implementation, and through one if its main contributors (Alan Kay) leads to the Croquet Project.

Smalltalk leads to Squeak, the open source implementation, and through one if its main contributors (Alan Kay) leads to the Croquet Project. I don’t even know where to begin to describe this project. It’s an open and programmable 3D environment designed for communication and collaboration. Or something. You have to see it to believe it. And maybe not even then.

https://apps.kde.org/konqueror/
A web browser and file manager for KDE.
The KHTML rendering engine was made for it. Safari also uses that engine. It’s nice, but .. could be better. Has insane and not-customizable accesskeys.
