The FAQ erroneously says that the DOS port of Less is in the gnuish
directory.  In fact, it is in SimTel/msdos/textutil; this will be
corrected in the next release of the FAQ.  That port is a 16-bit port
compiled with MSC.  (I have a DJGPP v2.0 port that I'll upload in a couple
of weeks, once I'm sure it works OK.)

The location of other items you ask for is described correctly in the 
FAQ, so use the URLs there to get them.

If the gnuish directory you look at seems incomplete, try another SimTel 
mirror.  Some of them are very much out-of-date lately.
