command

command: command [-pVv] command [arg ...]

Runs COMMAND with ARGS ignoring shell functions.  If you have a shell
function called `ls', and you wish to call the command `ls', you can
say "command ls".  If the -p option is given, a default value is used
for PATH that is guaranteed to find all of the standard utilities.  If
the -V or -v option is given, a string is printed describing COMMAND.
The -V option produces a more verbose description.
