 | + |  | 
| − |        lvuis part of the lunar source-based package management suite. It is a
 | + |  | 
| − |        general purpose command-line tool for displaying package logs,  version
 | + |  | 
| − |        information,   checking  for  installed  packages,  checksums,  message
 | + |  | 
| − |        digests, maintainer information, package  URL  information,  displaying
 | + |  | 
| − |        new  packages,  untracked files, sections, searching for files that are
 | + |  | 
| − |        installed, finding when modules were created and packages in the  soft-
 | + |  | 
| − |        ware  catalogue.  It  can even take and retrieve snapshots of currently
 | + |  | 
| − |        installed packages for easy duplication.
