SYNOPSIS

       openssl cmd -help | [-option | -option arg] ... [arg] ...

DESCRIPTION

       Every cmd listed above is a (sub-)command of the openssl(1) application.  It has its own

       openssl dgst command, type "man openssl-dgst".

OPTIONS

       Among others, every subcommand has a help option.

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.
