Have you seen: `openssl ciphers -v` output?
This does not list the cipher string building blocks that represent
classes of cipher suites rather than an individual cipher suite.

Perhaps the OP wants to be able to list these:

        aNULL, eNULL, kRSA, AESGCM, ...

Also not clear whether the request is for a more detailed manpage
or a command-line tool.


A command line tool. Like openssl list-ciphersuits

Will list things like --

Encryption --
AES256: AES with 256 passphrase
AES256: AES with 256 passphrase
Camellia: Camellia cipher
...
...

MAC --
MD5 -- MD5 digest algorithm
SHA1 -- SHA1. Warnings, notices etc...
...
...
...

Authentication --
RSA
DSA
...
...

Key exchange --
kRSA
DH
kPSK

Hope you get the idea.

This'll also avoid updating the man page with long descriptive text.
