      Description: https://rol.redhat.com/rol/roc/course/GettingHelp.html

      I would like to see both “g” (go to start of file) and “G” (go to end of file) included in the “Navigating man pages” table.

      In relation to “man -k KEYWORD”, I typically show how grep can be used to filter through the results. So for item 11 on page https://rol.redhat.com/rol/roc/course/ch03s02.html, I might show “man -k kernel; man -k boot; man -k parameter” and then finally “man -k boot | grep kernel”. After showing students an example or two, I encourage students who haven't used grep before to explore its man page.
