antiX 22 wtih updater and icon manager

  I've been working with a couple of different antiX distributions.  My main one is antiX 22.  The others are Legacy OS 2023 and antiX 23 Alpha 1.

Legacy OS 2023 is a stable, good looking, minimal and useful antiX alternative for older systems.  As such it doesn't work with my newest system, my HP-14 laptop, but it's especially good on my old Lenovo X201 and my Dell Inspiron 5558.

As for the updater, PPC, an antiX contributor, has written several useful tools using yad with either Bash, Python, or a combination of both.  yad-updater, icewm-toolbar-manager, icewm-quick-personal-menu-manager, yad-touchpad, and FT10 are several of the tools written by PPC.
