+asbt acts like a package manager for your local copy of slackbuilds.
+(usually obtained from slackbuilds.org)
+
+It supports searching (-s), viewing information (-i,-r,-d,-v) ,
+downloading (-g), building (-B), and installing/removing/upgrading packages.
+
+The list of available options is present in the readme and the man page.
+
+The variables used in the script, which you would probably
+adjust according to your wish, are:
+
+1) repodir="/home/$USER/slackbuilds"
+ # Repository for slackbuilds.
+
+2) srcdir="/home/$USER/src"
+ # Where the downloaded source packages are to be placed.
+ # Leave it blank for saving it in the same directory as the slackbuild.
+
+3) outdir="/home/$USER/src"
+ # Where the build package will be placed.
+ # Leave it blank for putting it in /tmp.
+
+4) gitdir="/home/$USER/git/slackbuilds/.git"
+ # Directory where the slackbuilds git repository is present.
+
+5) editor="/usr/bin/vim"
+ # Editor for viewing/editing slackbuilds.
+
+These variables can also be configured via editing /etc/asbt/asbt.conf
