Apparently there are development projects other than Trinity that
allow for the use of Quanta+ on Slack 13.37 partitions. The bad
news is, I can't find a download for them. I tried the TRinity
route. The good news is that it didn't screw up my system.
It took several reboots etc. but I finally got Quanta+ up. I run
it from /opt/trinity/bin

Here are the messages I get:

This is very good news. My next step is to exercise it looking
for gotchas. Stay tuned.
