A lot of systems ship with an intro in each section.
So to get an intro to section 2 of the manual, you use the command:
man 2 intro
(Although for SunOS/Solaris, the command is slightly different - I can't remember what it is. Use man man to find out how to specify the section to look in.)

NAME
mxmldoc - mini-xml documentation generator
SYNOPSIS
mxmldoc --no-output [ filename.xml ] source file(s) ]
mxmldoc [ --footer footerfile ] [ --header headerfile ] [ --intro introfile ] [ --section section ] [ --title title ] [ filename.xml ] [
source file(s) ] > filename.html
mxmldoc [ --footer footerfile ] [ --framed basename ] [ --header headerfile ] [ --intro introfile ] [ --section section ] [ --title title ]
[ filename.xml ] [ source file(s) ]
mxmldoc --man manpage [ --footer footerfile ] [ --header headerfile ] [ --intro introfile ] [ --section section ] [ --title title ] [ file-
name.xml ] [ source file(s) ] > filename.man
DESCRIPTION
mxmldoc scans the specified C and C++ source files to produce an XML representation of globally accessible classes, constants, enumera-
tions, functions, structures, typedefs, unions, and variables - the XML file is updated as necessary. By default, a HTML representation of
the XML file is written to the standard output. Use the --no-output option to disable the HTML output.
Man page source can be generated using the --man option.
If no source files are specified then the current XML file is converted to the standard output.
In general, any C or C++ source code is handled by mxmldoc, however it was specifically written to handle code with documentation that is
formatted according to the CUPS Developer Guide which is available at "http://www.cups.org/documentation.php".
OPTIONS
--footer footerfile
Inserts the specified file at the bottom of the output documentation.
--framed basename
Created HTML documentation using frames - one for the table-of-contents and one for the body.
--header headerfile
Inserts the specified file at the top of the output documentation.
--intro introfile
Inserts the specified file before the table of contents.
--man manpage
Generated a man page instead of HTML documentation.
--no-output
Disables generation of documentation on the standard output.
--section section
Sets the section/keywords in the output documentation.
--title title
Sets the title of the output documentation.
