Lots of interesting stuff in these other folders.  Of note for this list
is a file in http://www.math.purdue.edu/~wilker/misc/DEVEL/0057/ listing
the contents of the old Genie Color Computer file archives.  I
downloaded that one and I'll post it on the Wiki at coco25.com.  It
would be interesting to compare that with the Delphi archives...
