In Arch Linux I want to get a list of the packages installed and install all packages from a file. But I want to include packages from the AUR.
With pacman I can get the list of installed packages:
$ pacman -Qqe > pkglist.txt
And install packages from a list:
# pacman -S --needed - < pkglist.txt
`` `From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

honestly, !bash@heapoverflow.ml would’ve been most appropriate, considering my answer was
xargs
