I don't believe there is any software that covers ALL of the digital modes.
You didn't say if the software needed to be free or not. Ham Radio Deluxe has
the DM-780 module that covers a lot of different digital modes. It's not free.
It does come with multiple tools, including a logger that many like (there are
several other popular logging programs, including the N3FJP and N1MM loggers).
However, if free is important, you can use multiple programs to achieve the same
end, but it may not be as convenient as using one program for most of your
digital needs.
The most popular program right now seems to be WSJT-X for FT-8 and some other
digital modes. There are several programs that cover RTTY. Then there are other
digital modes like Olivia. There's going to be an Olivia event on Feb 14, 2023,
that will give you some activity to try out that mode with.
You will need to determine your friend's needs and decide on which digital modes
he or she wants to explore before picking a program. There are many different
digital modes, and many programs to choose from.
