To look through all man pages for a string there are two options

1. loop through the manpages files with find, xargs and zgrep:

find $(manpath|tr ':' ' ') -type f -print0 | xargs -0 zgrep -i '\.config/systemd'

2. simply use man -K notice the capital K:

man -K '.config/systemd'

Sorting cmd output by column with the sort command

Some commands come with their own sorting functionality. Anyhow it's an useful flag to have in your repertoire

So let's say we want to sort by VSZ and we have this output.

[azureuser@alma ~]$ ps aux |head -5
