HISTORY

46       Initially, the manual page entry for the "openssl cmd" command used to
47       be available at cmd(1). Later, the alias openssl-cmd(1) was introduced,
48       which made it easier to group the openssl commands using the apropos(1)
49       command or the shell's tab completion.
50
51       In order to reduce cluttering of the global manual page namespace, the
52       manual page entries without the 'openssl-' prefix have been deprecated
53       in OpenSSL 3.0 and will be removed in OpenSSL 4.0.
