      This comment here is peak Linux, and a perfect example of that xkcd comic.

      99% of people probably couldn’t even tell you what a syntax is. Let alone how it’s relevant to using Linux

          Apart from the online manpage archives, there’s man -k and grepping the manpage directories, but that’s not really ideal (although that’s what I did when I started Unix a long time ago).

          There are help browsers like in kde which are kind of nice but I’m not sure if they do a full text search. But they’re nice for info pages.
