bdl is on a distinguished road
Under 'woody' you can grab the utility 'aptitude', and this makes a nice apt front-end. You can search through software, and install right from that interface. It's pretty much all I use to install / update / remove software. Of course, you can just about 'apt-get' anything. Think of a software package you'd like to have, and just 'apt-get softwarepackagename'. More than likely it'll download and install automatically, grabbing any dependencies as it goes.
