OPTIONS
       -a       Just  search  the  docs  for the string <topic>.  This matches
                substrings and prints the topic followed by the matching line.
       -f<file> Use <file> as the helptext file.
       -k       Similar to "-a", but only matches whole words.
       -p       disable the use of any pager just send the output to stdout.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       We will be adding a bk man command to format the man pages on the fly.
