Does apt replace dselect?

[Mark Phillips <mark@ist.flinders.edu.au>]

Hi,

I was under the impression that apt would replace dselect and provide a
more user friendly package manager.  But so far I've just heard about
apt-get which sounds like just a script for installing debian packages
directly from the net.  Could someone enlighten me on the true role
and status of apt?

Thanks,

Mark.
