 ===== Listing Packages =====
-Run ls -l output on /var/log/packages <code># ls -l /var/log/packages</code>
+Simply list files in /var/log/packages (path is actually a link to ''/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/''). <code bash># ls -l /var/log/packages/</code>
+List full package name (with version) only <code bash># for that in $(ls /var/log/packages/) ; do echo $that ; done | sort</code>
+Find installed packages that are not in Slackware tree <code bash>
+slackfull=slackware64-15.0 ; slacktree=/home/share/slackware/$slackfull ;
+for pkg in $(ls /var/log/packages/) ; do
+	pkgf=$(find $slacktree/ -name "${pkg}.txz") ;
+	[ -f "$pkgf" ] && continue ;
+	echo "** Package '$pkg' is alien!" ;
+done</code> This can also be done using ''slackview'' script (in my1shell repo) <code># slackview find --alien</code>
+View information on specific package <code># slackview find [pkg_name]</code>
+To list currently installed packages (to be used in my1live)
+  * get all installed packages <code bash># slackview file --name pkgs.txt --installed --insert</code>
+  * sort based on software sets <code># slackview file --name pkgs.txt --sort</code>
+  * remove those already selected for my1live <code>slackview file --name pkgs.txt --dups curr.list</code>
+  * rename pkgs.txt to my1live list (e.g. XXmore.list)
