[net.micro] Need list of Generic MS-DOS and CP/M86 Programs

I purchased a Televideo 1603 at an estate sale and I need to locate software
that will run on it.  It came with two OSs, CP/M86 and MSDOS V2.0, and two
application programs, TELEWRITE and TELECALC, which run under CP/M86.  I have
varified that MSDOS allows you to read PCDOS formatted floppies.

Does anyone know where I can get a list of "well behaved" programs that will
run on a non-IBM MSDOS machine?  Is CP/M86 a dead OS?  I have found many CP/M80
programs, but no CP/M86 programs (other than those that Televideo wrote for
the machine).

Televideo 1603 has a mouse port for use with their Super Mouse.  Has anyone
used the mouse?  Does anyone know what programs are written to use the mouse?

Thanks for your help.
