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 :)
