    And if you type 'man dpkg' in a terminal, it will explain a bit about the dpkg command and what the various parameters mean. You will need to hit the PgDn key several times to get to the --configure -a part, but it is all there. When finished, hit 'q' to exit the man page.

    Man pages are a great way to learn about Linux commands.
