Writing a Package Manager
 

Greetings folks! One fascinating Linux aspect is the package manager, and I am interested in writing one. How would I write it, so that a terminal can use it (I don't want it to be a GUI yet). If I did continue with this project, I'd call the package manager Zeus, and I plan to have three switches: -z to uninstall a package, -i to install a package, and -p to get a package list.

Hello.

Dear package manager... lol
