I want a list of apps included in BT4

I want the list of all apps so that I can replace everything that can replaced in Win XP so that I get use to the apps in there in Win XP first.

Im not following...

I think he wants to see what tools from backtrack have windows versions to install in his windows xp machine. :p

To the OP, it's not a very smart move, but ok...

You're only going to get a half dozen apps that have windows versions.

I usually just do the following, but I guess your method works too.

Code:

---

dpkg -l

---

The /pentest directory should also be checked.

Well, I do it that way as part of a procedure I use when I upgrade my OS (clean install).

I run that command and save the file. Then I install the new release and run the command again and save it as new_apps.txt

Then I substract:

Code:

---

comm -3 installed_apps.txt new_apps.txt > to_be_installed.txt

---

So I can install what is missing:

Code:

---

apt-get install dselect

dpkg --set-selections < to_be_installed.txt

aptitude update

dselect install
