- 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}}`
