To generate the list, I'd propose:
pacman -Qeq > list.txt
-e : only explicitly installed packages (deps get installed anyways...)
-q : output better suited for scripts
And on the other machine, just do the obvious:
pacman -S - < list.txt
(Note the single '-', specifiying to read the list of packages from stdin).

Folks:
Assume I've installed a bunch of packages manually on machine A. Now I
want to install those same packages-- not manually-- on machine B. I
can have pacman tell me what packages are installed on machine A. Now,
can I take the package list from machine A and, in an automated way,
have pacman then install those packages on machine B? If so, how?

Outstanding. That looks like it would work. Many thanks.
