Seeing as there are thousands of supplemental programs and utilities, let
alone custom scripts, which can be run with a single word from the command
line, I think you're on a hopeless quest here, but you might try "man bash",
and maybe a book with a chapter on shells.

Something to try: <Tab><Tab>y.
