- killerbat00 5y agoYep! man -k even has an ISO standard with which apropos is compliant https://www.mankier.com/1/apropos.mandoc#Standards https://www.mankier.com/1/apropos.mandoc#Standards
- dllthomas 5y agoRight. There's often a tension between features and ease of use.
- OJFord 5y agoJust don't be one of those people who go around saying 'hehe apropros of nothing mirite' at seemingly everything! (Also, `man --apropros` is the long option fwiw. I'm not really suggesting that as a better alternative though!)
