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.

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
