Doh, you're not dense, it's me. I've just checked and the FreeBSD
``man intro'' doesn't do it. I remember this man page from when I
started using Unix (Sun's) and just quoted it.
FWIW, the Sun version does this...
INTRO(1) USER COMMANDS INTRO(1)
LIST OF COMMANDS
Name Appears on Page Description
comb sccs-comb(1) combine SCCS deltas
comm comm(1) display lines in
common between two sorted lists
compress compress(1) compress or expand
files, display expanded contents
continue csh(1) C shell built-in
commands, see csh(1)
cp cp(1) copy files
cpio cpio(1) copy file archives in
and out
cpp cpp(1) the C language
preprocessor
crontab crontab(1) install, edit, remove
or list a user's crontab file
crtplot plot(1G) graphics filters for
various plotters
crypt crypt(1) encode or decode a
file
etc., etc.
