25 $FUNCTION command_builtin
26 $SHORT_DOC command [-pVv] command [arg ...]
27 Runs COMMAND with ARGS ignoring shell functions. If you have a shell
28 function called `ls', and you wish to call the command `ls', you can
29 say "command ls". If the -p option is given, a default value is used
30 for PATH that is guaranteed to find all of the standard utilities. If
31 the -V or -v option is given, a string is printed describing COMMAND.
32 The -V option produces a more verbose description.
