I've always liked the man feature:
man -k <search_term>
Which does something like an "apropos" search on man pages.
I used to use this feature often inside of emacs, first doing an
ESC x man
then at the prompt, entering:
-k <search_term>
Now, with a recent "cvs emacs" (soon to be called "bizarre emacs", I fear),
I find that I can't type the space after the -k.
Is this supposed to be a feature? How can I fix it?
- ESC x man and "man -k",
