INTRO(1)                   OpenBSD Reference Manual                   INTRO(1)

NAME
     intro - introduction to general commands (tools and utilities)

DESCRIPTION
     The manual pages in section one contain most of the commands which com-
     prise 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.  The exit values and their meanings are
     explained in the individual manuals.  Traditionally, the value 0 signi-
     fies successful completion of the command.
