Best Answer

There is no answer to this question.

Under UNIX and Linux, commands are either shell native or external programs found on the path (which usually includes /bin /sbin /usr/bin and ~/bin)

Most UNIX and distros allow the admin to choose a shell program of choice and modify the contents of other directories and many admins allow individual users to change their personal shell and add additional executable files adding more commands.

That being the case, theoretically any command can be valid under almost any UNIX or Linux. YMMV.
