== NAME ==<br />
intro - introduction to commands<br />
<br />
== DESCRIPTION ==<br />
This section describes publicly accessible commands in<br />
alphabetic order. Certain distinctions of purpose are made<br />
in the headings:<br />
<br />
(1) Commands of general utility.<br />
<br />
(1C) Commands for communication with other systems.<br />
<br />
(1G) Commands used primarily for graphics and computer-aided<br />
design.<br />
<br />
(1M) Commands used primarily for system maintenance.<br />
<br />
The word `local' at the foot of a page means that the com-<br />
mand is not intended for general distribution. The word<br />
`UNIX/32V' at the foot of a page means that some or all of<br />
the description applies only to the UNIX/32V system for the<br />
Digital Equipment Corporation VAX-11.<br />
<br />

<br />
== DIAGNOSTICS ==<br />
Upon termination each command returns two bytes of status,<br />
one supplied by the system giving the cause for termination,<br />
and (in the case of `normal' termination) one supplied by<br />
the program, see _w_a_i_t and _e_x_i_t(2). The former byte is 0 for<br />
normal termination, the latter is customarily 0 for success-<br />
ful execution, nonzero to indicate troubles such as errone-<br />
ous parameters, bad or inaccessible data, or other inability<br />
to cope with the task at hand. It is called variously `exit<br />
code', `exit status' or `return code', and is described only<br />
where special conventions are involved.<br />
