+slack acts like a package manager for your local copy of slackbuilds.
+(usually obtained from slackbuilds.org)
+
+It supports following functions/options:
+
+1) search the repository (-s)
+2) info about specified package (-i)
+3) readme about specified package (-r)
+4) goto the package directory (-g)
+5) view slackbuild (-v)
+6) list files contained in specified package directory (-l)
+7) description about specified package (-d)
+8) get/download the package (-G)
+9) build the package (-B)
+10) install the built package (-I)
+11) upgrade installed package with built package (-U)
+12) remove installed package (-R)
+13) query installed packages (-q)
+14) view all packages installed from the slackbuilds repo (-a)
+15) update git repo of slackbuilds (-u)
+
+Usage:
+slack <option> [package]
+
+The variables used in the script, which you would probably
+adjust according to your wish, are:
+
+1) repodir=""
+ # Repository for slackbuilds.
+
+2) srcpath=""
+ # Where the downloaded source packages are to be placed.
+ # Leave it blank for saving it in the same directory as the slackbuild.
+
+3) outdir=""
+ # Where the build package will be placed.
+ # Leave it blank for putting it in /tmp.
+
+4) gitdir=""
+ # Directory where the slackbuilds git repository is present.
+
+These variables can also be configured via editing /etc/slack/slack.conf
