Assalamualaikum. Often i find myself writing on paper the list of programs i need to reinstall after a clean wipe (see post here, My experience upgrading to 12.04 then downgrading to 11.10), some other time just memorizing or writing on a whiteboard. After that install the list is usually lost or obsolete.

The easy way is to make an accessible and rewritable list. This is my list of programs to be installed/uninstalled in case of another upgrade/downgrade/format. Some programs are necessary, some are optional.
