slackpkg
Your best option is to use slackpkg, which is a package manager on top of Slackware's own pkgtools. Before you can use slackpkg you will need to define an online mirror from which it will download updates to your computer.
A list of available mirrors for your Slackware version can be found in this file:
/etc/slackpkg/mirrors
Open the file in a text editor such as nano or vi and uncomment a single mirror URL. Make sure that the URL mentions the release number for the version of Slackware you are running! Also, pick a mirror which is close to you or of which you know it is fast. When you have done that, you need to initialize slackpkg's database by running
# slackpkg update gpg
# slackpkg update
|
When I go into nano mirrors I do not see any URL, I see this

Not sure if this is what I need to look at
