|
|
- Display a description from a man page:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`whatis {{command}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Don't cut the description off at the end of the line:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`whatis --long {{command}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Search man page descriptions with a regular expression:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`whatis --regex {{regular_expression}}`
