\fBpackagesearch\fR is aimed to help you searching the packages you need. It should make the task of searching a pleasant experience. Originally I designed it for the purpose of finding a single package where you have a clear imagination of what you want. But you can also use it to simply browse your packages to explore. Perhaps there is something in the database that you simply must have :\-).
