Debian Commands

Is there a document or list anywhere of all the Debian specific commands, their parameters and what they do? I'm thinking of things like dpkg, update-modules, dpkg-reconfigure and all the rest. I am trying to learn the Debian system and a ready reference would be very helpful. :)Fish -- To

Have you tried the man command? I mean type something like 'man dpkg', 'man dpkg-reconfigure' on your shell. Mauricio Lin. On Fri, 29 Oct 2004 13:56:34 +0100, mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is there a document or list anywhere of all the Debian specific commands, their parameters and what
