One way to at least partially ameliorate this situation would be to
include the man pages for programs.  Then the users would have the
option of running "apropos <program-keyword>" instead of asking for
<program> on IRC.

While I understand that the man pages take up space and that space is
tight on the BBC, I'd rather have man pages than some of the less-used
utilities that are currently included.
