[Nottingham] apt or aptitude or dpkg equivalent

[lists at voila.fr]

All,

When I was tempted by the not so dark side (rpm based distros) I used as command to get all the packages installed : rpm -q IIRC

Is there an equivalent with apt based distros ?

rgs,

Matt

RTFM suggestions welcome as long as someone tells me which FM !
