Stansoft is Linux financial accounting software for business. It uses a 
PostgreSQL database, which is included. You can optionally use an IBM 
Informix Innovator-C database, which can be downloaded free of charge from 
IBM. There is no limit on the number of users per installation, which 
allows for scalability from small to large companies. The user interface 
is ncurses / terminal based to optimize data entry efficiency. It can be 
run locally or deployed remotely on a virtual private server (VPS) in the 
cloud.

You must have a stansoft user and group to run this script:
# groupadd -g 325 stansoft
# useradd -u 325 -g 325 -c \"Stansoft user\" -s /bin/bash stansoft

If you wish to use IBM Informix, please add informix user and group as well
# groupadd -g 326 informix
# useradd -u 326 -g 326 -c \"Informix user\" -s /bin/bash informix

NOTES:
1) After installing the Slackbuild you must run the Stansoft installation 
   script /opt/stansoft/install

2) Installation and setup help can be found in /opt/stansoft/README and 
   the manual is located at /opt/stansoft/doc/ssmanual.pdf

3) stansoft and informix are the database administrator account, so please
   set a strong password for it.
