The 'VARIANT' variable allows switching between the 'latest' and 'testing'
repositories. The 'testing' repsitory will focus on stuff which is not
ready for prime-time, such as wayland, logind (part of systemd) and pam.

Note that the 'alien.*' package list which is used for the PLASMA5 ISO
also adds the full LXQT desktop. LXQT has a lot of dependencies (covered
in the 'lxqtdeps.lst) but almost all of these dependencies are already
part of PLASMA5 anyway.
The two 'lxqt.*' and 'lxqtdeps.*' package lists are meant for people
who do not want to create a PLASMA5 ISO (and therefore do not want to use
the 'alien.lst') but want an ISO focusing on LXQT without all the plasma5
or alien stuff.

This makes remote CUPS printers available locally.

While still staying below the CDROM size limit of 737.280.000 bytes,
I was able to add lftp, fltk and tigervnc (because I need them),
cdrtools and dosfstools (because iso2usb.sh needs them),
as well as hplip and net-snmp to complement the recently added cups packages.
I hope the XFCE variant now has a fully functional print support.

This is of course a new parameter to the "make_slackware_live.sh" script.
It was added to allow the developer to make small changes to the file tree
of what is to become the ISO image, and then re-generate the ISO without
having to repeat all the other steps (potentially undoing the modifications).
Useful for debugging mostly.

Or to be more precise: below 737.280.000 bytes (80min CDROM medium size)

The addons/ and optional/ directory will be searched for *.sxz modules
even if they live in subdirectories. This allows you to organize your
modules instead of dumping them all into a single directory.
If a module fails to load (because it is corrupted for instance) liveinit
will mention this on screen and write the modulename to a file
'/mnt/live/modules/failed'.

No more xaos or bsd-games, and the Tibetan TrueType font tibmachuni-font-ttf
has been removed as well. But you get cups back in their place.

As documented in file "/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst":
lv3 Key to choose 3rd level
lv3:ralt_switch_multikey Right Alt, Shift+Right Alt key is Compose
And as explained in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey :
There are four levels of keyboard entry. Selecting a level involves holding
a set of modifier keys down, this changes the function of all the other keys
on the keyboard. The levels are, by default:
Level Modifier Keys produced
-------------------------------
1 None Lowercase letters, numbers, etc.
2 Shift Uppercase letters, symbols printed on keyboard, etc.
3 AltGr Extra symbols not printed on the keyboard, some dead keys.
4 AltGr-Shift Even more symbols, more dead keys.
Dead keys are keys that appear to do nothing at first; they apply an accent
to the next letter you type.
Third and fourth level choosers:
Holding down the AltGr key and pressing another key will produce a third level
character. Holding down the AltGr and Shift keys (the order can be important)
and pressing another key will produce a fourth level character.
Note that some combinations are dead keys; an additional key-press is required
whereupon a diacritic will be added to the final character keyed.
Compose key:
Keying the combination Shift+AltGr (in that order), releasing these keys,
then entering two other keys will produce a special character.

The file "0020-slackware_multilib-current-x86_64.sxz" (for Slackware64-current)
or "0020-slackware_multilib-14.2-x86_64.sxz" (for Slackware64 14.2) can be
extracted from the ISO afterwards and distributed separately and independently
from the Slackware Live ISOs.
If you want to add multilib to your persistent USB version of Slackware Live,
you just copy the above squashfs module into the /liveslak/addons/ directory
of the liveslak partition on the stick (this enables multilib by default).
or else copy it to /liveslak/optional/ if you want to enable multilib on boot
manually by adding a "load=multilib" boot parameter.

Variable XKB can be set to "XkbLayout,XkbVariant,XkbOptions".
For example "xkb=ch,fr,compose:sclk,grp:alt_shift_toggle"
Note that the XkbOptions can be several comma-separated values.
The XkbLayout and XkbVariant values must not contain commas.
You can still set just the XkbVariant by adding something like "kbd=ch xkb=,fr"

In 'make_slackware_live.conf' you can give that variable "LIVEUID" another
value than the default "live" if you want to create a Live Edition where
the Live user account is not called "live".

This allows people to find the instructions on how to edit the boot
commandline in syslinux or grub more easily. Now it is here:

New parameter to the script:
-l|--lukshome <name> Custom path to the containerfile for your LUKS
encrypted /home (slhome by default).
Note: not only (just as with the persistence container) can you choose
a custom name for the the LUKS container file but you can also create it
in a subdirectory instead of in the filesystem root now.

New parameter '-M' to the "make_slackware_live.sh" script will add
a squashfs module "0020-slackware_multilib-VERSION-ARCH.sxz" to the iso,
its contents based on the ./pkglists/multilib.* package repo definitions.
Only for the x86_64 architecture of course.
If you already have a USB Live, you can simply copy this module into the
directory "/liveslak/addons" to transform your pure 64bit Slackware Live
Edition into a multilib variant.

Some explanation about what the 'debug' boot parameter does:
'debug=1' => enable some strategic pauses during boot while showing 'mount'
and 'blkid' output, so you can scroll back and inspect the proceedings
(just 'debug' also enables level 1).
'debug=2' => enable verbose script execution in addition to the above pause
moments.
'debug=3' => verbose script execution but without the mount/blkid info during
the strategically placed pauses.
'debug=4' => dumps you into a debug shell right before the switch_root.
No other pauses other debugging aids are offered like with levels 1, 2 or 3.
But you can check the health of your Live system before Slackware boots up.

* iso2usb.sh: added '-r' parameter to refresh an existing USB Live stick
with data from a new Live ISO.
* boot: added 'nop=wipe' parameter which will cause all persistent data
(in the persistence directory or a persistent data container) to be
erased. This allows you to repair a case of corrupted persistent
data which can occur after you modified files that are part of a
squashfs module.
Note that this boot option will leave an encrypted /home un-touched!
