How to get dependencies also ...



I want to install a software package but I don't want
to download each of it's dependencies and install them
one by one. For e.g. if I wanted to install fvwm2,
then is there a command like:

apt-get -install fvwm2

which will download not only fvwm2 but also all of
it's dependencies and install them (after informing me
of those dependencies)?

Also, how do I browse through the contents of a *.deb
package? (dpkg -I *.deb ???).

Thanks.
