-Russian translation for system man pages version 3.41
+man-pages-ru (Russian system documentation)
+
+Russian translation for system man pages. This requires a terminal
+that can handle UTF-8 (such as konsole, xfce4-terminal, or
+rxvt-unicode), and a UTF-8 locale such as LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8. You'll
+also need a font that displays Cyrillic glyphs (should be included
+with Slackware already).
+
+Sadly, this isn't a complete set of man pages. For instance, there are
+no man pages included for coreutils.
