.TH Command APROPOS

.NA apropos "Searches info pages for information on a topic"

.LV Basic

.SY "apropos <searchword> [maxhits]"

|
The Empire info pages are organized by subject. It can sometimes be hard to
|
|
find the exact page with the information in which you are interested.
|
|
To get a list of subjects containing the word you are looking for, type:
|
|
.EX apropos <word>
|
|
.s1
|
|
without the < and > brackets.
|
|
.s1
|
|
You can then type:
|
|
.EX apropos bridge
|
|
to get a list of Empire commands and info topics which contain the
|
|
word bridge, as well as the line that mentions it.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Apropos is not case sensitive, thus the above example will find
|
|
pages with Bridge or bridge (or even bRiDgE).
|
|
.s1
|
|
By default, apropos exits when 100 hits are found. You can change this value
|
|
with an optional second parameter.

.SA "info, Playing"
