I downloaded the slackbuilds-14.2-20180120.1 from git to figure out and
I agree with you, that's not as simple as I hoped it could be.

So, short of finding a volunteer to review 6918 READMEs one by one
(anyone?), I suggest that maintainers edit manually their READMEs if
they want, on the occasion of an update for instance.

Again, thanks for your work, Dave.

Greetings,

Didier
