I just installed the package autojump through apt and now I have no idea how to actually use it. Newer versions uses a j alias, but apparently the apt version does not.



In interest of finding out which binaries I should execute to use autojump, is there a way to see what exactly was installed by package?

The following command will list all files installed by the package autojump:



dpkg -L autojump


It is a dpkg command because dpkg is actually responsible for installing packages, apt just a frontend that runs dpkg.



For completeness, there is also the reverse command:



dpkg -S file


This will give you all packages which contain something named file (this can also be a single part of a path).
