And after looking at all the apps on https://www.trinitydesktop.org/applications.php
That page may need to be updated, but at least here (https://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/) you will be able to have a quick list of the modules currently in TDE sources.
tl;dr > I have the app names. Where do I get the descriptions off the git website? (And apt/yum/etc. package names if available.)
Okay, a bit of background is in order I guess. I’ve just built a new box, lots of ram, lots of disk, so initially I just wanted to install all of the TDE user apps just to try them out.
After Michele pointed out a way to see the names of all the apps, I remembered a conversation from several months back that it was suggested someone [could/should] add a wiki page so the updating of TDE app information could be off-loaded from the devs.
Since I now had all the app names, if I could also get the descriptions from git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit , or similar, then I could write a script that would build that wiki page. If there is also a programmatic way to get the apt/yum/etc. package names I can also add that to the script so that information is also available for new users.
Hence the request for the the specific file (or file pattern) within git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit that contains the "Description:" text that is displayed by, for example, "apt show tdeedu-trinity".
Apologies for the confusion my original rambling caused.
Thanks, Michael

I don't use Debian/Ubuntu but I believe that the description of the package is written in the "control" file and there's also a description field in the "spec" file for RPM packages.
Have you had a look on the packaging repository in git?
https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde-packaging
Hi gregory,
Yeah!!! No, I was looking in the wrong place :(
Yup the Debian "control" file has everything needed, including the Debian package name.
I looked at the Red Hat .spec file and all I’d want from it would be the package name. I’m not sure what language it’s in, but am I parsing it right to get the RH package name? Using abakus for example, from these 2 lines in the .spec file (Link for example*):
%define tde_pkg abakus Name: trinity-%{tde_pkg}
Package name is "trinity-abakus"
and,
yum install trinity-abakus
would be the correct command to install the abakus package?
A RPM user should be answering that ;-)
Just my 2 cents here, to my knowledge the last Fedora's make use of "DNF" instead of "yum".
