Finding More Information

UNIX in general

Use the commands apropos and man. Apropos is more general - if you give it a word, it will find manual pages that have to to do with that word. To look at a particular manual page, use man topic, where topic is a specific command or subject.

If in doubt:

Check with google to see if you can find an answer to your question.
