If you already have the .deb file, you can run 'dpkg --contents file.deb'. But probably downloading is the harder part in the general case; I don't know of a good way to see what files are in a package without downloading it. (It'd be nice if packages.debian.org offered more functionality, like being able to read the files in /usr/share/doc/<package> directly off the Web site or listing the file contents.) -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
