I blew a few minds a week ago when I told my younger coworkers about man pages. I hit ‘em with the `man man` and one dude was like “whoa!”

Further blow their minds by showing them `apropos` https://manpages.debian.org/testing/man-db/apropos.1.en.html

I remember my first days with Linux/Unix and being taught about man and apropos and info. But somehow I could never find anything useful via apropos!

With many years of insight, I think I probably never updated the database.

man -k, apropos, but less to type

I'm 100% certain this is user error, but I have not once gotten apropos to give me any output other than "nothing appropriate."

Reminds me of the old canard of 'man woman'
