.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions all live in the
|
|
.Pa apropos-utils.h
|
|
header file.
|
|
They operate on
|
|

|
|
which is an SQLite database containing a full text search index of the manual
|
|
pages.
|
|
The functions provide an easy to use interface to query the database and
|
|
develop applications on top of it.
