--- Comment #7 from Alexander Ziaee <ziaee@runbox.com> ---
man(7) is a legacy language (circa 1970s) that doesn't support any search
related functions or anything. You want mdoc(7) (circa 1990s), and converting
from a less expressive language to a more expressive language is intrinsically
impossible. Here's the tutorial: https://manpages.bsd.lv/mdoc.html
