It's the same font Slackware uses on the LiveCD console portion of setup.

I do plan to install swift when its released. Hopefully it will succeed where Golang failed.

There needs to be another language low in the system for writing API's like OpenGL, GTK, etc. that is safer, but nearly as fast as C. Leaving C and Assembly for the stuff that runs closest to the hardware.

The GnuTLS, OpenSSL debacle proved that. I saw a big write up by a long time C veteran who analyzed the code in a lot of these core system packages. His take was that there are a lot of people writing C that have neither the experience, nor safety consciousness that they need to write effective C.

I always install claws-mail, geany, lilo and its dependency bin86. Also one or two programs that I use for writing music: pmw and a front-end I wrote to it called pmwscribe.

I would like to include palemoon in future builds as a preferred alternative to firefox, but it means building an earlier gcc. It can't be built with gcc-7.
