Hi Ben,
Those instructions were written for Windows 10 before we had a
Windows-native binary, and before that other person's WSL instructions.
Regards,
Bryce.

into the SLiM manual itself. This is still desirable, and those
instructions are up to date as far as you know, yes? If so, I'd like to
resolve this for the next SLiM release.
I'm a little bit puzzled, though, because there are already WSL install
instructions in the manual. Do the instructions you wrote up supplant those
earlier instructions, written by Bernard Kim? What is the reason that you
wrote new instructions in SLiM-Extras? Presumably I knew this once, but
have forgotten.
Perhaps, if you have the time, the best thing would be for you to make the
manual revisions yourself? If so, I can sent you a Pages doc for the
current Chapter 2, and you can revise it with tracked changes as usual?
(BTW, I already removed all mention of AppImage installs, as I believe we
decided upon a while but, but which had not yet been done.) Or if you don't
have time to do this yourself, perhaps you could just give me a little
background/guidance that answers my questions above? Thanks!

Hi @bryce-carson! Oh, interesting. OK, so I guess I ought to just remove them from the SLiM-Extras repo and leave it at that? |
Yeah, as long as the instructions aren't linked to from SLiM's readme, indeed. |
OK, I've just removed it. Closing. |

Ah, it was referenced from the README.md file in SLiM's repo, though. I've just updated that, removing the reference and otherwise updating the info provided there. :-> |
