I'm quite a newbie when it comes to linux, but I've picked up some bits.

I'm wanting to use apt-get to install lists of applications as opposed to doing it VERY slowly with App Manager. I can install, and remove happily, but I'm having an issue with the names of packages.

As an example.... what apt-get command would I use to install "Merge your duplicate contacts" since you can't have spaces between the words.

So far I'm limited to one-word applications (e.g Hermes).

Is there a method to find the name of the package? or some trick I don't know about?

Thanks
