Sman is "The Searcher for Man Pages", an enhanced
version of "apropos" and "man -k". Sman adds
several key abilities over its predecessors,
including stemming and support for complex boolean
text searches such as "(linux and kernel) or (mach
and microkernel)". It shows results in a ranked
order, optionally with a summary of the manpage
with the searched text highlighted. Searches may
be applied to the manpage section, title, body, or
filename. The complete contents of the man page
are indexed. A prebuilt index is used to perform
fast searches.
