HISTORY

       Initially, the manual page entry for the "openssl cmd" command used to be available at cmd(1). Later, the
       alias  openssl-cmd(1)  was  introduced,  which  made  it  easier  to group the openssl commands using the
       apropos(1) command or the shell's tab completion.

       In order to reduce cluttering of the global manual page namespace, the manual page  entries  without  the
       'openssl-' prefix have been deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and will be removed in OpenSSL 4.0.
