command

Command forces the shell to execute the program and ignore any functions, builtins and aliases with the same name. More information: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#index-command.

• Execute the ls program literally, even if an ls alias exists:

command {{ls}}

• Find and execute a command using a default $PATH (/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/etc:/usr/etc) that guarantees to find all standard utilities:

command -p {{command_name}}

• Display the path to the executable or the alias definition of a specific command:

command -v {{command_name}}
