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 man-
     ual page entries without the 'openssl-' prefix have been deprecated in
     OpenSSL 3.0 and will be removed in OpenSSL 4.0.

     The engine command was removed in OpenSSL 4.0.
