This is a list of POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) commands as specified by IEEE Std 1003.1-2024, which is part of the Single UNIX Specification (SUS). These commands can be found on Unix operating systems and most Unix-like operating systems.
An alternative to getopts is the Linux enhanced version of getopt, the external command line program. The Linux enhanced version of getopt has the extra safety of getopts plus more advanced features. It supports long option names (e.g. --help) and the options do not have to appear before all the operands (e.g. command operand1 operand2 -a ...
Command-line argument parsing is the process of analyzing and handling command-line input provided to a program.
The user, on Unix-type systems, sets the environment variable LC_MESSAGES, and the program will display strings in the selected language, if there is an .mo file for it. Users on GNU variants can also use the environment variable LANGUAGE instead.
The command supports several options via flags. It can be configured to issue a message using -p instead of needing to use the echo command.

UTF-8 and Shift JIS are often used in C byte strings, while UTF-16 is often used in C wide strings when wchar_t is 16 bits. Truncating strings with variable-width characters using functions like strncpy can produce invalid sequences at the end of the string. This can be unsafe if the truncated parts are interpreted by code that assumes the ...
Ctrl+l : Clears the screen content (equivalent to the command clear). Ctrl+n : recalls the next command (equivalent to the key ↓).
