SYNOPSIS

     apropos [-d] keyword ...
     whatis [-d] keyword ...

     MANLOCALES, MANPATH, PATH
	    Used to find the location of the whatis database files. See manpath(1) for additional information.

     PAGER  Program used to display files.  If unset, more -s is used.

DIAGNOSTICS

     The apropos utility exits 0 if a keyword matched and 1 if no keywords are matched or no whatis databases are found.
