OK, here is a description. I'm not sure which parts are bash specific:
.
.
.
sort|uniq|less
Well, I sort of understand what it's doing, I guess.
BTW: I think such a list isn't very helpful. I prefer the apropos command
to search for a particular command.
I was using apropos to find 'du': going 'apropos disk' didn't do it,
'apropos disk usage' did find it, but of course, to do this one I had already
remembered the command anyway. This only an example, I've got plenty of guis
installed to do the disc info job more completely. A dolphin keyword search
on the file resulting from your script is nearly as quick as using apropos, whatis
or whatever, I find.
Thanks, Nils, have a Good Christmas
