Try xman. This is a gui for man. You need to bring up the man page for
each command, but xman categorizes commands in a fairly nice format.
Run
xman &
in a terminal window from your window manager or desktop. The & will place
the job in the bacground, which permits you to continue using your
terminal window for other work, or to close that window.
