I never thought about man pages until a few days ago I did some experiments with execline and had a quick question about syntax. I did man execlineb and of course got "no entry". So I fired up a browser, did a locate command, and put a path in my browser. The browser is vastly superior for learning all about unfamiliar or moderately familiar software, but for the quick lookup of something you primarily know about, there's no substitute for a quick "man execlineb".
