So far, I have gone through all of the ARCHIVER and BASE packages and have corrected their LSM data. In those groups, these packages have not been solved. Unknown license information and will probably be dropped from release, ARCHIVER/ARJ ARCHIVER/ZOO Missing sources, BASE/COMMAND Yet

I see your (Jerome Shidel) list of packages, BASE and ALL, no need to quote the list. I think there is only one web browser, Dillo? Are others available as add-ons: Lynx, Links-GUI, Arachne? I can't think of any other current or recent web browsers for DOS. This so far is mainly a matter of
