Note that UEFI PXE-boot is not yet working, I do not know why.

Added a new parameter to 'make_slackware_live.sh' script:
-l <localization>
For example, create a liveslak ISO with dutch as the default language
instead of US english:
# ./make_slackware_live.sh -l nl
Using this parameter you can onfigure a different default language
for the resulting ISO image. The default localization if you do not
supply this parameter remains "us" as before.
The boot menu offers a selection of other languages/localizations
to pick from (currently you can select any of 'be br da gb de de_ch es
fr fr_ch it ja nl pt ru se us') but now you can create your own brand
of liveslak ISO with your own language as the default.

- fix detection of german (de) keyboard layout to configure Compose Key,
- actually use field #6 of the languages file (X Keyboard layout & variant)
when generating the grub and syslinux boot configuration files.

- generate the grub fonts (.pf2) ourselves instead of using the
Slackware-provided grub font file.
- expand the help text about the boot parameters.
- show the liveslak version number in the boot menu.
- remove the 'boot any OS' menu item in Grub because it never worked for me.
- add a bit of Grub help text at the bottom of the screen.
NOTES:
- I do not like the way how I had to implement the Grub2 help menu,
it is ugly. Perhaps the text artefacts and understrikes are caused by the
fact that the grub console has to paint on top of the graphical boot menu?
- In any case, the grub console (the black rectangle in the middle) has its
coordinates hard-coded in the grub2 source so it is not configurable.
- the grub fonts look better than in Beta3 but I am still not happy with them.

Slackware's shipped Grub font is 19 point in size which does not scale well.
Research and proposed patch by Didier Spaier.
