(Marathon HyperArchive was formerly known as Pfhile Central.)

  Did you ever download something off of amug.org and not know what the
   heck it was? Every get lost trying to find a simple editor? The
   Marathon HyperArchive is here for you! (It's a graphical interface to
   the AMUG ftp site.) View an organized list of the best Marathon files
   AMUG has to offer, with a description of each file.

New additions: Links now all link to ftp.amug.org
               Links all work (for now)
               Icons for each program!

The site is http://www.amug.org/~marathon/steve/hyper/index.html

or if you have netscape 1.1 you can try:

https://home.amug.org/~marathon/steve/hyper/index.html

(yes it is https)

Let me know what you think!

-Steve

With Steve's kind permission, I've used this document as a starting
place to create Marathon HyperArchive NorthWest, at

http://www.ese.ogi.edu/pub/entertainment/marathon/

It contains most of the stuff Steve's page contains, with a few additions
and deletions. The biggest difference is all the files are local to
this machine. If you can get to the page, you can get to the archive. (Not
always true with amug!)

I'll do my best to keep the files current (non-trivial, these days-I've 
swapped Phforte versions three times in two days!). 

The machine seems to be down at the moment, and, being physically
15 miles from where I am, may not come up until Monday morning. On
the other hand, it might be up Sunday morning-depends on the dedication
of my lab mates. ;)

Enjoy!
