magiic - Simple front for Slackpkg
by slackjeff from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XFJR)
Hello!
I have a youtube brazil, channel where I talk exclusively about slackware with about 4.3k subscribers.
70% are new to Slackware, and I see that many unfortunately don't like to get their hands dirty with commands (Weird? I know...). Or some are forgotten etc.
I decided to create this simple tool, which is a simple front with dialog for slackpkg. Something like pkgtool.
It's really simple, don't get me wrong, a lot might need to be introduced, and I decided to make some things simpler to follow the Slackware philosophy.

Salute to all.
