Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team,
the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing
a great forum for collaboration and testing.

The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a
dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.  Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com.  We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.

As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions,
and feedback.  :-)

Have fun!

<p>Slackware's <tt class="COMMAND">traceroute</tt>(8) command is a very useful network
diagnostic tool. <tt class="COMMAND">traceroute</tt> displays each host that a packet
travels through as it tries to reach its destination. You can see how many
&#8220;hops&#8221; from the Slackware web site you are with this command:</p>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
<pre class="SCREEN">
<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">traceroute www.slackware.com</kbd>
</pre>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>Each host will be displayed, along with the response times at each host. Here is an
example output:</p>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">

<pre class="SCREEN">

<p><tt class="COMMAND">traceroute</tt> is similar to <tt class="COMMAND">ping</tt> in
that it uses ICMP packets. There are several options that you can specify with <tt
class="COMMAND">traceroute</tt>. These options are explained in detail in the man
page.</p>
