2017-04-30 | Add boot-time tweak 'nsh' to disable new sub-pixel hinting in freetype...Freetype has enabled a 'new style' of sub-pixel hinting, based on the
Infinality patch but simplified for speed.
Some people feel that this new type of hinting is resulting in worse font
rendering than with the old auto-hinter built into Freetype.
The new tweak 'nsh' effectively disables the new type of sub-pixel hinting
and makes Freetype fall back to the old behaviour.
Usage: add "tweaks=nsh" to the boot commandline of the Live OS.

2017-04-17 | Get Slackware packages from remote mirror in absense of local copy...Previously, the 'make_slackware_live.sh' script would exit if no local
copy of a Slackware package mirror was available. Now, the script will
download a copy from a default rsync mirror (osuosl.org) instead,
and then proceed with creating a Live ISO.
Another rsync URI can be specified in the .conf file if you want.

2017-02-02 | README: put some more emphasis in the ISO developer section....Specifically, stress the fact that generating an ISO requires that you
create a local Slackware mirror prior to running 'make_slackware_live.sh',

only 3rd party packages.

2017-01-24 | PLASMA5: add several new packages I forgot earlier....In fact, I had not intended to replace Slackware's kdelibs4-based calligra
with the new KF5-based version. But upgrading calligra allowed me to get
rid of the old kdelibs4-based kactivities, nepomuk-core and nepomuk-widgets
packages.
And krita has been made separate from calligra, so that is a new package
in my 'ktown' set altogether. Kexi is absent (it was split out of calligra
just like krita) but if someone needs it, I will add it in the next update.
And finally, the package libkcddb4 is the older ldelibs4-based version
which is required by k3b.
The new KF5-based libkcddb is incompatible with k3b.

2017-01-23 | The liveinit script is a template too and cannot be used as-is....This file was forgotten in the previous commit.
It has now also been given a '.tpl' extension in the liveslak sources,
to indicate that it is a template and not usable as-is.
The 'make_slackware_live.sh' script parses the template file and performs
a series of variable substitutions to generate the final 'init' script
inside the initrd of the ISO image.

2017-01-23 | Make it obvious that some scripts are templates and cannot be used as-is....This affects:
- pxeserver
- setup2hd
Both have been renamed with extension '.tpl' as indication that they are
templates. The 'make_slackware_live.sh' script performs a series of
substitutions on them to produce the actual scripts inside the ISO.
