Slint64-14.2.1.1 is released! Current Slint users can upgrade without re-installing, to do that read: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/doc/README-UPGRADE New users, to get the new ISO image just type: wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/slint/files/14.2.1/slint64-14.2.1.1.iso To know more and get started read: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/README-14.2.1.1 And for the accessibility features: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/doc/ACCESSIBILITY As a reminder, Slint is a Linux distribution based on Slackware, easy to install and use, polyglot, containing several pre-configured desktops, and window managers, and all software for your daily needs and more. It provides to the visually impaired users speech and braille in all contexts: installation, login, usage on text or console made as in desktops including MATE, now also with Compiz (which provides features for partially sighted users), speechd-el and emacspeak. Of course orca, speech-dispatcher, espeak, espeakup and brltty are included. The most notable changes since 14.2.1 are: * Addition of vlc, the ubiquitous audio and video player and recorder. * Addition of mate-tweak, Compiz, Emerald and associated themes. * All speech-related applications now rely on alsa or portaudio only and audio settings have been enhanced. Benefits: a better sound quality when using speech in console mode, speech applications now start instantly in all contexts, audio outputs coming from speech application and audio players nicely coexist.
