Re: [orca-list] Command line query

["Lee Maschmeyer" <lee_maschmeyer wayne edu>]

It's not a Linux command but is specific to Debian and Debian-based distros 
such as Ubuntu. Try:

apt-cache search application name | less

This is true of any command that causes unwanted scrolling.

By the way, I think your mail headers are set up such that replies to your 
messages, at least when I send mine, go to you alone instead of the list. 
This is inconvenient because we have to modify the To: field by hand, if we 
notice it at all. I think the field in question may be called "Reply-To:". 
This should be left blank to enable replies to your list messages to go to 
the list so they can be discussed and corrected if they're off-base; replies 
to messages you don't send to a list will go to you automatically.

HTH, and since this is going to the list someone will correct me if I'm 
wrong. :-)
