-====== The APT tool Plugin For OMV6 ======
-\\
-\\
-===== Summary =====
-APT is a package management tool for software packages. Using it's core libraries, it facilitates the process of installation and uninstallation of Linux software packages and their dependencies. It is also used to maintain and upgrade installed packages.
-The **APT tool** allows for user package management within the OMV GUI, with options to **List**, **Install**, **Remove**, **Hold**, and **UnHold** packages.
-===== Prerequisites =====
-  * [[https://wiki.omv-extras.org/doku.php?id=misc_docs:omv_extras|OMV-Extras]] must be pre-installed.
-===== Installation =====
-In OMV6's GUI:\\
-Under **System**, **Plugins**, find and highlight **openmediavault-apttool 6.X**, and click the **install** button.
-===== Useage =====
-Under **Services**, **Apt Tool**, click on **Packages**.
-In this instance, we're going to add a CLI utility call **htop**.  (''htop'' is a process viewer with many improvements over the installed ''top'' process viewer.  However ''htop'' is not in a standard Debian/OMV installation).\\
