How to know which packages are installed

Hi,

Sorry if there is already an answer for this, but I could not find it.

Is there an easy way to know/list all the installed packages on the system? I mean, using the pacman with some switch combinations to get all the installed packages, like, for instance, as it is possbile with yum: "yum list installed"

Thank you for your feedback.

when you said you couldn't find it, did you try man pacman?

My method is ...pacman -Q |less....... and scroll with the uo/dwn arrows.

EDIT 

pacman -Q |less
