How did you try to search them?  There are at least 3 different ways
to search through the docs:

   - press `s' and type a string: searches in the current manual

   - press `i' and type a string: searches through the index of the
     current manual

   - type `Alt-x index-apropos RET string RET': searches in all
     indices of all the manuals that are installed on your system

When you don't know in which manual to look, the last option is the
most powerful.

Did you use one of these methods?
