Yes, but since console-apt was pulled from the frozen tree, I can't use it any
longer.  ;-p  There are alternatives: aptitude (yet another *.deb utility
written in ncurses), gnome-apt (ooo...eye-candy), and zgrep (ooo...hardcore
quickness).

Oh, and I learned how to use awk today, a very minimal amount of knowledge,
granted, but enough to let you know that AWK ROCKS! ;-)  Now all I have to do
is learn how to use sed and I'll never have to leave the console.
