 +====== magiic, frontend slackpkg ======
  
 +slackpkg is an excellent tool that has done its job well. However, some lazy slackers like to use the dialog to instead of typing commands, with the directional + enter / space to do various functions.
 +[[https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/magiic/?search=magiic|magiic]] is a simple slackpkg frontend and was created for that, for lazy slackers who love dialog.
 +
 +with magiic you can do several functions such as: Adjust your mirrors, check for updates, update the system, install packages, search, remove etc...
 +The main features of slackpkg are present in magiic.
 +
 +<note>
 +Support for slackpkg plus and other extensions may not work. Magiic is used to use pure slackpkg.
