CONTENTS: bc gp9600 groff quota sc workbone ftape mt_st vim texinfo ash manpgs ash: Kenneth Almquist's ash shell. ash: ash: A lightweight (62K) Bourne compatible shell. Great for machines with ash: low memory, but does not provide all the extras of shells like bash, ash: tcsh, and zsh. Runs most shell scripts compatible with the Bourne ash: shell. Note that under Linux, most scripts seem to use at least some ash: bash-specific syntax. The Slackware setup scripts are a notable ash: exception, since ash is the shell used on the install disks. NetBSD ash: uses ash as its /bin/sh. ash: ash: texinfo: GNU texinfo-3.1 texinfo: texinfo: 'Texinfo' is a documentation system that uses a single source file to texinfo: produce both on-line information and printed output. Using Texinfo, texinfo: you can create a printed document with the normal features of a book, texinfo: including chapters, sections, cross references, and indices. From the texinfo: same Texinfo source file, you can create a menu-driven, on-line Info texinfo: file with nodes, menus, cross references, and indices. texinfo: texinfo: This package is needed to read the documentation files in /usr/info. texinfo: vim: Version 3.0 of Vim: Vi IMproved vim: vim: Vim is an almost compatible version of the UNIX editor vi. Only the vim: 'Q' command is missing (you don't need it). Many new features have vim: been added: multi level undo, command line history, filename vim: completion, block operations, etc. vim: vim: vim: vim: vim: mt_st: mt-st-0.1 - controls magnetic tape drive operation mt_st: mt_st: This mt originates from BSD NET-2. Some Linux SCSI tape-specific mt_st: ioctls have been added to the original source and the man page has mt_st: been updated. Although this mt program is tailored for SCSI tape, it mt_st: can also be used with the QIC-02 driver and hopefully with other Linux mt_st: tape drivers using the same ioctls (some of the commands may not work mt_st: with all drivers). mt_st: mt_st: mt_st: bc: GNU bc 1.02 - An arbitrary precision calculator language. bc: bc: bc is a language that supports arbitrary precision numbers with bc: interactive execution of statements. There are some similarities in bc: the syntax to the C programming language. bc: bc: bc: bc: bc: bc: ftape: ftape 1.13b ftape: ftape: Bas Laarhoven's FTAPE module. ftape: ftape: The FTAPE driver allows you to use a QIC-40 or QIC-80 floppy tape ftape: drive with Linux. ftape: ftape: This module will only work with Linux version: 1.1.59 ftape: ftape: ftape: workbone: Workbone 0.1 workbone: workbone: Text-based audio CD player. workbone: workbone: workbone: workbone: workbone: workbone: workbone: workbone: # ...... removed due to security complaints. Look for 'sample_users.tgz' in # the contrib directory. :^) #gonzo: Sample users 'gonzo', 'snake', and 'satan'. #gonzo: #gonzo: NOTE: These sample users will be created without passwords. Be sure to #gonzo: assign passwords to them after rebooting. If you decide you want to #gonzo: remove them later, you can remove a user (and the user's home #gonzo: directory) with this command: #gonzo: #gonzo: userdel -r user #gonzo: ^^^^ Where this is the account to remove. #gonzo: #gonzo: gp9600: This is a script that allows you to set your modem speed. If you do gp9600: not install this script, your baud rate will be set to 9600. If you gp9600: install it, a menu will be presented later on allowing you to select gp9600: any of the following baud rates: gp9600: gp9600: 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400. gp9600: gp9600: If you need something faster than this, you should set the baud to gp9600: 38400, which can be changed to mean a faster rate with setserial. gp9600: gp9600: groff: GNU troff 1.09 document formatting system. groff: groff: The groff package provides versions of troff, nroff, eqn, tbl, and groff: other Unix text-formatting utilities. Groff is used to 'compile' man groff: pages stored in groff/nroff format into a form which can be printed or groff: displayed on the screen. These man pages would be in /usr/man/man?. groff: Most of the man pages in the Slackware Linux distribution (except in groff: the groff package) have been preformatted, GNU zipped, and placed in groff: the /usr/man/preformat/cat? directories. Groff is not needed to view groff: preformatted man pages. groff: quota: Disk quota utilities. quota: quota: Disk quota utilities, written by Marco van Wieringen, Edvard Tuinder, quota: and Linus Torvalds. The required kernel patches are built into some quota: of the kernels and source provided with Slackware, and the patches can quota: be found in the ./kernel-source/v1.1 directory of the Slackware source quota: tree. quota: quota: quota: quota: sc: The 'sc' spreadsheet.
