The purpose of this list is to help me remember what to reinstall after a disk crash (a frequent occurrence on my 2002 PowerBook Titanium). As a side effect, I am hoping that other OS X users find it to be a useful starting point for choosing the software they need.
Although the list focuses on open-source or otherwise free software, payware is included in exceptional cases.
The following categories lead to the corresponding sections of my del.icio.us bookmarks.
