Slackpkg is a tool for those who want to easily install or upgrade packages
via the network. With slackpkg, you can have a minimal installation of
Slackware Linux and install/upgrade only those packages you need most.
You don't need to setup NFS or make dozens of CDs for all your computers;
all you need to do is to type one command and all the latest official
Slackware packages will be at your fingertips.
For more information about slackpkg, see its man pages:
man 8 slackpkg
man 5 slackpkg.conf
