I wish there were more apps for PC GEM. There's a lot more on the ST.

Not aware of it. Maybe it would be something worth porting?

Dunno, I'm not aware they were ported to Watcom. :< As Watcom is a free
compiler that can compile all the way down to 8088, and is more powerful
than Pacific and about on par with a mix of Borland and DJGPP, I think it
would be generally more useful these days.

I *think* there's something called sc or something on PC GEM. It didn't
take off like Atari GEM did so there's really not as much software for it.
