apropos 命令列出的每个命令后面的数字是什么意思? (1-8、pm、ssl 等)

apropos 命令列出的每个命令后面的数字是什么意思? (1-8、pm、ssl 等)

我试图完成一篇关于适当命令。当我运行该apropos命令时,它会列出如下内容:

fahim@Fahim:~$ apropos delete
argz_delete (3)      - functions to handle an argz list
crlutil (1)          - List, generate, modify, or delete CRLs within the NSS ...
DELETE (7)           - delete rows of a table
delete_module (2)    - unload a kernel module
flatpak-remote-delete (1) - Delete a remote repository
git-branch (1)       - List, create, or delete branches
git-replace (1)      - Create, list, delete refs to replace objects
git-symbolic-ref (1) - Read, modify and delete symbolic refs
git-tag (1)          - Create, list, delete or verify a tag object signed wit...
groupdel (8)         - delete a group

在每个列出的命令之后,括号中都有一个数字。这个数字是什么意思?它有什么用呢?

编辑:我已经在手册页上看到了答案。为了检查所有数字是否在 1 到 8 之间,我尝试了这个命令,一些结果是:

fahim@Fahim:~$ apropos a
YAML::LibYAML (3pm)  - Perl YAML Serialization using XS and libyaml
x509 (1ssl)          - Certificate display and signing utility
x509v3_config (5ssl) - X509 V3 certificate extension configuration format
X25519 (7ssl)        - EVP_PKEY X25519 and X448 support

关于数字的答案是有道理的,但是这些 3pm、1ssl、5ssl、7ssl 呢?

答案1

下表显示了手册的章节号以及其包含的页面类型。

   1   Executable programs or shell commands
   2   System calls (functions provided by the kernel)
   3   Library calls (functions within program libraries)
   4   Special files (usually found in /dev)
   5   File formats and conventions, e.g. /etc/passwd
   6   Games
   7   Miscellaneous (including macro packages and conventions), e.g. man(7), groff(7)
   8   System administration commands (usually only for root)
   9   Kernel routines [Non standard]

我从执行“man man”命令中删除了上面的文本。
