To add another one:

volks-hypertext. A poor-man's Hypertext interface which interprets
ASCII documents, for UNIX it's based on curses. Readers only, no
authors system.

A nice example is the jargon file. How can any hacker be without vh?? :-) :-)
 Or are vh-users classified as wannabes? (You don't know about
wannabes? Check out vh... ;)

P.S.: I have no connection to the person who has written this package -- but
      I like it. It gives the opportunity to show people that one does not
      need graphic workstations to make hypertext available for
      readers.
	 Of course, the same holds for info, also IMHO the interface
      of vh is more intuitive to the naive (read: non-Emacs) user.
