Excellent idea. I remember being so confused even to make a port
to _try_ an application was a trial: "make? right. What's make?"
Seems we can do that right here on this list real simple like.

For starters I would recommend:
Lynx
Pine
Netscape
ee
ispell
xpdf
CorelWP
gimp

Course that's just me. With enough contributions, we could probably
cover most everything right here on newbies.
