Most files are available by three methods. The file name link downloads files from the server you are currently on using the HTTP protocol. The HTTP and FTP links following the file name will retrieve the file from the master Trenco archive using the HTTP or FTP protocols, respectively.
Conch Shell 2.0 is a prodos shell which may be used as a program launcher in place of the usual finder. Many useful features found in Unix and MS-DOS are available in this shell. The archive also includes a CDA version of the shell, which has all the features of the stand-alone version of the shell, except for those connected with launching programs. That makes a command line available in 16-bit software (Conch Shell will not work under Prodos 8), with which to rename, delete, change file types, etc.
HyperLaunch 3.0.2, by Joe Jaworski, is program launcher for GS/OS. Several pages of buttons can be defined to quickly launch programs.

JumpStart is a formerly shareware program launcher and file/disk utilities package, made freeware by the author, Dave Hill. This archive is of the last version (3.0.2) with the shareware notices deactivated. All the files necessary for a bootable disk are in the shrunk folder.
