- GibBreakPls 8y agoYou are doing it wrong if you are "reading through a long man page".
- andygrunwald 8y agoWhat is the „correct“ way? (real question, I am curious)
- berti 8y agogrep is pretty handy, -C 5 or so will get you a nice amount of context. Maybe GibBreakPls has better tricks.
- yesenadam 8y agoYou can search man pages by "/" then your search term, then press "n" to cycle forward, "N" to cycle back through occurrences.
- dustfinger 8y agoMight I also suggest apropose. > https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apropos_(Unix) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apropos_(Unix) Also, of course see: > http://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/apropos.1.html http://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/apropos.1.html
