Since I am unable to run X, I have been looking around and haven't been able to find a good site for console programs. When I say console programs I mean applications like word processors, spreadsheets, databases, a few games etc. Any console sites I do find only have server software, and the ports seems to favor X for the kinds of applications i'm looking for.
