   That depends on whether you accept Wikipedia as a trustworthy source. People   
   write anything on there.    
      
   When I unzip "GED3B3WC.ZIP" every looks genuine. There is "FILE_ID.DIZ",   
   "!readme.1st", DOS extender, full documentation, registration forms, installer.   
      
   On the other hand "golded-plus-1.1.5-20180707-win32-msvc2010.7z" just contains   
   3 executables in a suspicious "bin" directory, a "share" directory (which   
   makes no sense) and no documentation on how to get started. The main program   
   does not even run.    
      
   The GitHub distribution looks dodgy.
