列出所有的 Bash Shell 内置命令

shell 内置命令就是一个命令或一个函数，从 shell 中调用，它直接在 shell 中执行。 bash shell 直接执行该命令而无需调用其他程序。你可以使用 help 命令查看 Bash 内置命令的信息。以下是几种不同类型的内置命令。

类型如下：
Bourne Shell 内置命令：内置命令继承自 Bourne Shell。
Bash 内置命令：特定于 Bash 的内置命令表。
修改 Shell 行为：修改 shell 属性和可选行为的内置命令。
特别的内置命令：由 POSIX 特别分类的内置命令。

有以下的命令：

$ help
$ help | less
$ help | grep read

样例输出：

GNU bash, version 4.1.5(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

另外一种选择是使用下列命令：

compgen -b
compgen -b | more

运行以下得到详细信息：

help command
help read

要仅得到所有带简短描述的内置命令的列表，执行如下:

$ help -d

使用下列语法去找出更多的相关内置命令：

help name
help cd 
help fg 
help for 
help read 
help :

使用 type 命令或 command 命令：

type -a command-name-here
type -a cd 
type -a uname 
type -a : 
type -a ls

或者：

type -a cd uname : ls uname

样例输出：

cd is a shell builtin
uname is /bin/uname
: is a shell builtin
ls is aliased to `ls --color=auto'
ls is /bin/ls
l is a function
l ()
{
 ls --color=auto
}

或者：

command -V ls
command -V cd 
command -V foo
