This is a Free-as-in-Rootbeer desktop database for keeping track of one family's genealogy. Earlier versions (not listed here) were sold commercially for 16-bit DOS, Macintosh and Apple II, but the church bought the publisher out and made later versions available at a token charge or for download. PAF 3 was a 32-bit DOS (DPMI) program that works well under Dosemu. Even though it's free, PAF is well-designed and useful. Many features facilitate fast data-entry and support careful research practices.

New major versions have generally been able to read the data files from one version back, but all versions have supported import from and export to the publically-documented GEDCOM format. Most other genealogy programs, including the Linux native ones, support import and export of GEDCOM data.

Currently, not everything works under wine (check the bug database and per-version comments for details).

There are a couple of Linux alternatives:

• Gramps (Debian package) - XML-based, written in Python. Good data-model (reads all of GEDCOM 5.5), handles large family trees well
• GeneWeb (Debian package) - Written in OCaml, with CGI interface. Simpler data-mode, but handles 400k-name families without trouble.

The SlingPlayer software works hand-in-hand with the hardware in the Slingbox to allow you to watch and control your TV on your computer. SlingRemote in SlingPlayer gives you full control over virtually any A/V device, from changing channels and viewing recorded content to fast-forwarding or setting up a season pass. So while your TV and Slingbox sit at home, you can be out and about with SlingPlayer.

NOTE:  Slingplayer has a native Mac OS X version available.

The Master Genealogist (TMG) is a popular genealogy software for Windows that was discontinued at the end of 2014 (The announcement.). ­The Master Genealogist is able to be customized for data entry through user-defined event, name, and relationship types.

TMG uses DLL's from Visual Fox Pro (VFP) so many issues associated with VFP affect TMG.

TMG's version history can be found on Wikipedia
