Anybody got any ideas for this very trivial thing I want to do?
As part of my backup (forget about TM for a moment), I'd like to have a running list of all the applications (and possibly System Preference panes and anything else that you all might recommend) that I have installed. So, if I were to do a clean install, I would have a list of all the applications I wanted to re-install.
I'm not talking about backing up the applications themselves. I just want a stinkin' list. Is there some system file which I can backup then reference for this list? Some ls-type cron I can do of the Applications folder?
I want something totally simple and which I can setup once and forget about.
Make sense? Thanks much.
