Pretty sure it's basicaly
alias apt='apt-get'
~~Can apt-get refresh package list?~~
Edit: yes...yes it can. I was confused.
Yes, apt-get update is, to the best of my knowledge, functionally identical to apt update.
D'oh, I'm a doofus
it's search that I was thinking of (apt-cache search, not apt-get search).

Me, I'm old, so I just keep using apt-get, because that's all we had back in the day, and I never bothered to learn what's the big deal about apt. It's just a frontend, isn't it?
Apt looks a little prettier I think. But I may be wrong.
