Suppose I have multiple versions of a software installed (e.g. bash), and that man -wa returns mutiple results for that piece of software.



Now, how can I jump directly to the N'th page after executing man -a? Currently, I need to close man pages (q), until I get to the N'th page.



Also, man 3 bash only seems to work for man pages of different sections.
