That's probably the answer to my question.

I expected to see a write-up on the C switch statement.  Similar to what I see
with "man 3 strlen" and the like.

Your statement indicates that keywords are not included in "man 3", so
apparently that's why it's not there.

It seems an odd choice to make, to cover the standard library and not the
keywords.
