Read the manpage for bash by typing 'man bash'

Then google for a tutorial on programming in ksh.

Or do a google search on bash or the shell that you want to use. There is scads of information out there.

You could also type "help" on the command line. This will give you a list. You can then type "help command" for more detailed information.

The above replies were for commands that are built into your shell.

That may not be what you meant. You may have meant to ask about commands that you can execute from your shell, but aren't necessarily built into it.

To get a list of commonly used commands, just go to google and look for any kind of beginner's tutorial to Linux.


To get a list of all commands installed on your machine, try this:

ls --color=none $(echo $PATH | cut -d: -f1- --output-delimiter=" ")
help
alias
set

That'll let you see, repectively, the binaries and shell scripts that have been installed in your PATH, shell builtin commands, aliases, and functions.
