How to get a full, complete list of installed apps
How do I get a full, complete list of installed apps? I have used Ubuntu Software Center, Software Sources and Synaptic Package Manager. Each gives most but not all the installed apps (software). I have also seen some terminal commands that give a few. Is there anything like the Windows and OSX GUI programs the let you view, add, or remove apps? Is there a directory-folder like Windows Program Files or OSX Applications Folder? Of course I then need to know how to add or remove them. I did terminal commands DOS in the 1980s and Unix in the 1990s, so if there's a modern GUI way to do it, please tell me what it is. BTW, I'm reading through Richard Peterson's e-book "Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop" where he describes several ways to deal with software. It's all very confusing.
