信息命令和手册页

我检查了GNU独立信息手册和GNU Info手册，却发现该功能存在一个很小的迹象。在选项-的描述中，我们可以阅读以下内容：

-全部-a

Find all files matching the given menu-item (a file or node name).
Three usage patterns are supported, as follows.

First, if --all is used together with --where, info prints the names
of all matching files found on standard output (including *manpages*
if relevant) and exits.

因此，恐怕唯一的文档就是源代码。在info.c中，您可以找到以下功能。查找“返回到加载手册页”。评论。

man.h包含MANPAGE_FILE_BUFFER_NAME的定义：

#define MANPAGE_FILE_BUFFER_NAME "*manpages*"
