Package: slop Version: 7.5-1+b1 Severity: minor Tags: patch Hello:
The man page could be improved to have better apropos(1) results. IOW, to make the program appear with search terms that come to mind first, as "select operation" is true but too abstract. See attached patch. Background: managed to find forgotten maim(1) via slop, but realized both have rather short name blocks, making them rather invisible to apropos unless you get the right word (of two possible). man -K uses full man page text (slow, also in the sense of having to hit C-d many times), while man -k or apropos seem to only use the one line name part. Cheers, GSR
