- _a_p_r_o_p_o_s shows which manual sections contain instances of any of the given
- keywords in their title. Each word is considered separately, and, case
- of letters is ignored. Words that are parts of other words are
- considered; thus, when looking for compile, _a_p_r_o_p_o_s will also find all
- instances of compiler. Try
-
- apropos password
-
- and
-
- apropos editor
-
- If the line starts `name(section) ...' you can do `man section name' to
- get the documentation for it. Try `apropos format' and then `man 3
- printf' to get the manual on the subroutine _p_r_i_n_t_f.
-
- _a_p_r_o_p_o_s is actually just the ----kkkk option to the _m_a_n(1) command.

- _a_p_r_o_p_o_s (_m_a_n -_k) requires that the _w_h_a_t_i_s database be kept up to date by
- running _m_a_k_e_w_h_a_t_i_s(1M) after installing or removing software from the
- system. If the _w_h_a_t_i_s database is not kept up to date, _a_p_r_o_p_o_s (_m_a_n -_k)
- will not find entries for new manual pages and will erroneously refer to
- manual pages that no longer exist on the system.
