Hello all!
Does anyone know where to find the entire list of all commands and parameters of command line tools? Need to automate the application building process and need to know what could be done and how.
The entire list of all commands and parameters of command line tools. Where?
There is no single place where you can find all that information. If you want to find a list of all tools, dump your PATH environment variable and then iterate each directory it references. It’s a long list.
Within a given tool, there’s no standard way to get all the options. Most tools print some help when you run them. Sometimes you have to supply an option, like -h or --help. In some cases that’s a summary, and you need to consult the man page for details. See Reading UNIX Manual Pages.
Welcome to Unix!
