Comment on Browse and Discover Manpages

ls /usr/share/man/man?/*
will show you all the man pages on your system. I used to pick ones at random.
Originally there were a number of manuals. Manual 1 had user commands. Manual 2 had system calls. Etc. You can type man NUMBER intro
to read about that manual. You can also use man -k
or appropos
but I’ve also just used grep. These days they’re compressed so zgrep.
