Shell command

=============

command

-------

Main semantic is to invoke command instead defined function with same name::

  $ ls() { ls --color "$@"; }

  $ ls                          # infinitely loop as func invoke itself

  $ ls() { command ls --color "$@"; }

  $ ls .                        # invoke /bin/ls with color output

  $ unset ls                    # forget func definition

  $ ls                          # invoke /bin/ls without color output

With '-p' arg Perform the command search using a default value for PATH that

is guaranteed to find all of the standard utilities::

  $ command -p getconf PATH

With '-v' arg work like 'which' command which not included in POSIX::

  $ command -v ls

  /usr/bin/ls

  $ command -v echo             # for build-in command print command itself

  echo                          # you can check for equality or for slash to

                                # distinguish from utilities
