How do I install Awesome Windows Manager in Terminal?

Question

Right now I'm running on Kubuntu and I'd like to install Awesome Window Manager in terminal. I've used Xmonad but I'd like another window manager, but don't know how to install "Awesome" from the terminal.

Solution

awesome is in the repositories, so

sudo apt-get install awesome fonts-font-awesome awesome-extra
