In 1988, I discovered a program called "Tornado" which was subsequently renamed "Info Select".

Thanks to some PC games in circulation at that time which also contained the word "Tornado" in their title, Google doesn't really understand what I'm trying to find, and Bing seems to be downright hostile to the term, "Abandonware".

(Can't imagine why Sigh | :sigh: )

In 1992, I discovered a program called "Memory Mate" by Broderbund.

As best I can tell, they do not acknowledge its existence today.

Similar circumstances surround Memory Mate with respect to Google and Bing; i.e., no can find.

Complicating their defacto absence is the fact that, if I ever could find them in the first place, they are 16-Bit MS-DOS programs, to which, current day windows seems to be even more hostile.

If anyone reading this remembers either of these two programs, and can suggest a workable alternative, I'll be reading your post with interest and gratitude.
