Thank you for reply, beny. I downloaded that file and I can extract that file using Terminal...I ran : slackpkg install package-name where package-name means file name of txz file. But I could not find where the resultant files were saved.

Can you please guide me about it? I use copy2ram version of Porteus.

The usual way is the software is installed in your system.
You can alter that e.g. give it a different ROOT path, then the package will be installed there. Then you can use dir2xzm to create a module.
Or when there is no need for altering any files after install then you can convert the package directly, e.g. like so:

Code: Select all

txz2xzm package1.txz 
That will create package1.xzm
Cheers!
