INTRO(8) BSD System Manager's Manual INTRO(8)NAME
intro -- introduction to system maintenance and operation commands
DESCRIPTION
This section contains information related to system operation and maintenance. It describes commands used to create new file systems,
newfs(8), verify the integrity of the file systems, fsck(8), control disk usage, edquota(8), maintain system backups, dump(8), and recover
files when disks die an untimely death, restore(8).
All commands set an exit status. Its value may be tested to see if the command completed normally. Unless otherwise noted (rare), the value
0 signifies successful completion of the command, while a value >0 indicates an error. Some commands attempt to describe the nature of the
failure by using error codes defined in sysexits(3), or set the status to arbitrary values >0 (typically 1), but many such values are not
described in the manual.

The intro section manual page appeared in 4.2BSD.

INTRO(1) BSD General Commands Manual INTRO(1)NAME
intro -- introduction to general commands (tools and utilities)
DESCRIPTION
Section one of the manual contains most of the commands which comprise the BSD user environment. Some of the commands included in section
one are text editors, command shell interpreters, searching and sorting tools, file manipulation commands, system status commands, remote
file copy commands, mail commands, compilers and compiler tools, formatted output tools, and line printer commands.
All commands set a status value upon exit which may be tested to see if the command completed normally. Traditionally, the value 0 signifies
successful completion of the command, while a value >0 indicates an error. Some commands attempt to describe the nature of the failure by
using exit codes as defined in sysexits(3), while others simply set the status to an arbitrary value >0 (typically 1).
