<SLACKWARE LiNUX DiRECTORY>
       
       i'm a happy slackware linux user since 2o12.  it's stable, simple,
       very well documented, and with a great community.  something to
       consider when using this distribution for the first time is
       that it needs some implication at start.  slackware comes with
       a very basic system configuration because the devteam takes for
       granted that you *will* customize it the way you want. 
       therefore you'll learn a lot about gnu/linux and your system.
       
       you'll find more informations about this distribution at:

       slackbuilds repository:
       i maintain various SlackBuilds packages.  most of them are taken
       from SBo and modified for my personal use.  very few have been
       done by myself.  in any case, it is strongly recommended that
       you read the scripts and modify them accordingly to your needs. 
       moreover, note that no binary is provided nor program sources;
       only the package scripts and their associated files are shared.
