Just ask here.

# dselect

Select the Access method (only needs to be done very infrequently).
Use "apt" to get packages from the net.
Select Update to download a list of online packages (needed infrequently).
Select "Select" to see the list of packages.
Cursor (PGUP/PGDOWN) keys moves screen up and down the list.
Press i to see more detailed info of a package.
Enter "/<keyword>" to find packages with what you want.
Press "/" to find the next result.
Press + to select, or - to uninstall.
Follow directions from then on.

Press ? for help.
