    Unfortunately, sometimes (often) there is no man page for what you are looking for. So if you get a page not found, that’s usually the case. You can usually find associated pages all the way at the bottom. That helps when what you are looking for isn’t a command, but a reference. I don’t remember exactly where it is, but man pages are stored in a directory. Probably /etc or /usr. You can always dump that list into fzf or use grep to search to see if there is a page for what you are looking for. It’s not a perfect system by any means, but it’s a good one to have in your toolbelt.
