I often do "aptitude install package" to install a package.

Cow can I get a list of all the packages I've installed this way?

Looking at /var/cache/apt/archives seems like a kludge?

dpkg -l | less

dpkg -l | awk '/^ii/ {print $2}' | less

will restrict it to just the installed packages, just the package
name.

aptitude search '~i!~M'

will show only those packages that are not automatically
installed. That is those packages that were manually, purposefully
installed, and not packages that were brought in as dependencies.
