one thing i noticed from my recent switch was the difference between how apt does searches: apt-cache search foo and how aptitude (non curses) does the search: aptitude search ~dfoo with aptitude i need to add the "~d" before my criteria to be sure it looks in the package descriptions. i only find it odd because i would have expected it to maybe be like so: aptitude search -d foo not an issue, just a difference that i though was not as intuitive as it could have been. that said, thank you very much for this wonderful package. my transition to it was flawless on my mixed source laptop and i am gaining comfort with the curses interface daily. -- Arrant Drivel - really, it's just trash... http://www.arrantdrivel.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
