Pacman program list [Solved]
I was looking over the page on pacman, but I didn't find the command to see a list of available programs. What would it be? is there is list by subject?

Which "page on pacman" were you looking at? man pacman is what you need - that's the only official documentation.

pacman -Sl
This is the one. How do I make it where you can see all without it going by so fast?

Re: Pacman program list [Solved]
@vinoman2: Or just redirect the output of pacman to a file in your home directory:
pacman -Sl >~/list_of_packages.txtYou can then view the contents of the text file in your preferred viewer, either on the command line (e.g. with less) or with a gui program like a text editor.
Kind regards,
