Have you noticed that you can find lots of stuff with 'apropos' that doesn't actually have a 'man' page? Here's an example: # apropos gnutls_x509_crt_export gnutls_x509_crt_export (3) - API function gnutls_x509_crt_export2 (3) - API function # man gnutls_x509_crt_export No manual entry for gnutls_x509_crt_export Thanks to you and Mike for your examples :)
