You can use the 'apt-cache' command to search for programs by
keywords. For example running:
apt-cache search rar unrar
Gives you this in the output:
unrar-free - Unarchiver for .rar files
unrar - Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version)
Install it as usual:
apt-get install unrar-free
Then use it with:
unrar-free x file.rar (From memory, I haven't used it for a while).
You can also search for packages on the Debian website at:
http://packages.debian.org/
