内置命令包含在 bash shell 本身里面。我该如何在 Linux / Apple OS X / *BSD / Unix 类操作系统列出所有的内置 bash 命令,而不用去读大篇的 bash 操作说明页?

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。

内置命令的类型

  1. Bourne Shell 内置命令:内置命令继承自 Bourne Shell。
  2. Bash 内置命令:特定于 Bash 的内置命令表。
  3. 修改 Shell 行为:修改 shell 属性和可选行为的内置命令。
  4. 特别的内置命令:由 POSIX 特别分类的内置命令。

如何查看所有 bash 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)
These shell commands are defined internally.  Type `help' to see this list.
Type `help name' to find out more about the function `name'.
Use `info bash' to find out more about the shell in general.
Use `man -k' or `info' to find out more about commands not in this list.

A star (*) next to a name means that the command is disabled.

另外一种选择是使用下列命令:

compgen -b
compgen -b | more

查看 Bash 的内置命令信息

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

查找内置命令的语法和其他选项

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 :

样例输出:

:: :
 Null command.
 
 No effect; the command does nothing.
 
 Exit Status:
 Always succeeds

找出一个命令是内部的(内置)还是外部的

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
