SYNOPSIS above), each of which often has a wealth of options and arguments
(I<command_opts> and I<command_args> in the SYNOPSIS).
-The pseudo-commands B<list-standard-commands>, B<list-message-digest-commands>,
-and B<list-cipher-commands> output a list (one entry per line) of the names
-of all standard commands, message digest commands, or cipher commands,
-respectively, that are available in the present B<openssl> utility.
-
-The pseudo-command B<no->I<XXX> tests whether a command of the
-specified name is available. If no command named I<XXX> exists, it
-returns 0 (success) and prints B<no->I<XXX>; otherwise it returns 1
-and prints I<XXX>. In both cases, the output goes to B<stdout> and
-nothing is printed to B<stderr>. Additional command line arguments
-are always ignored. Since for each cipher there is a command of the
-same name, this provides an easy way for shell scripts to test for the
-availability of ciphers in the B<openssl> program. (B<no->I<XXX> is
-not able to detect pseudo-commands such as B<quit>,
-B<list->I<...>B<-commands>, or B<no->I<XXX> itself.)
