Hi, I'm Ricardson (r1w1s1).
Slackware user, open source developer, and Unix enthusiast. I like C, shell scripting, simple and explicit software, and traditional Unix tools.
- Slackware Core Team member
- SlackBuilds.org maintainer and contributor
- Slackware packaging and small utilities
- Unix, shell, vi/nvi, X11, and minimalist software
- Upstream contributions and patches, including work accepted by suckless.org
I work with Linux infrastructure, DevOps/SRE, Kubernetes, and production systems.
I keep a collection of plain-text technical notes on Slackware, Unix, X11, editors, shell tools, and small systems.
My daily desktop is a small, keyboard-driven X11 environment built around CWM, traditional Unix tools, and simple shell scripts.
- code-notes - Plain-text notes on Slackware, Unix, and small systems.
- cwm-config - Minimal keyboard-driven CWM/X11 desktop.
- sonicde-SlackBuild - SlackBuild for SonicDE.
- xlibre-SlackBuild - SlackBuild for XLibre.
- slackbuilds - SlackBuilds.org packaging work.
I also contribute on Codeberg, where I've been working closely with the eh editor, a small vi-family editor that I use in my daily DevOps workflow.
