 137 =head1 HISTORY
 138
 139 Initially, the manual page entry for the C<openssl I<cmd>> command used
 140 to be available at I<cmd>(1). Later, the alias B<openssl-I<cmd>>(1) was
 141 introduced, which made it easier to group the openssl commands using
 142 the L<apropos(1)> command or the shell's tab completion.
 143
 144 In order to reduce cluttering of the global manual page namespace,
 145 the manual page entries without the 'openssl-' prefix have been
 146 deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and will be removed in OpenSSL 4.0.
