a gui for the Slackware tools. :)


well...for those who like it, there's a gui for the tools like pkgtool, liloconfig.......
nothing changes exept you can use it in your gui with the mouse.

if you want to try....

first get it here...

http://xdialog.dyns.net/

compile it as root.

to install: ( workdir=/.../Xdialog-2.1.2/src )
-#mv /bin/dialog /bin/dialog.slack
-#cp Xdialog /bin/dialog

and try pkgtool.

No need to compile it as root, just do
export PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/sbin

before make

yip, but su/passwd. is less typing
and you can " exit" without having " sbin's" in your path.
