    <title>Description</title>
    <para>The <emphasis role="bold">fs help</emphasis> command displays the complete online help entry (short
    description and syntax statement) for each command operation code
    specified by the <emphasis role="bold">-topic</emphasis> argument. If the <emphasis role="bold">-topic</emphasis> argument is omitted,
    the output includes the first line (name and short description) of the
    online help entry for every <emphasis role="bold">fs</emphasis> command.</para>

    <para>To display every <emphasis role="bold">fs</emphasis> command whose name or short description includes a
    specified keyword, use the <emphasis role="bold">fs apropos</emphasis> command.</para>
