George,

Tinyapps.org is a good source for freeware for older computers; the programs they showcase must fit on a floppy. (as opposed to today's bloatware). I can't remember if they have Mac software but even if not you might find a link thereto.

Can anyone (on-list or off-list) suggest a useful tool for web-writing,
which is likely to run on my very ancient Mac (an LC3, running system
7.5.1), which can produce stuff compatible with Explorer 4.1 (which I can't
upgrade), and which can handle diagrams and proper equations? Don't tell
me: that old computer needs upgrading. It's true, but I don't want the
hassle of it.
