Footnotes 1. In System V-based Unixes, run level relates to booting, shutdown, and single-user mode. In BSD, it has to do with security. 2. Freeware or separately downloadable; not part of the base OS. See the precompiled binaries task or web search.

Universal Command Guide is a large book which covers several of the OSs in this table. See http://www.allcommands.com UnixGuide.net has a similar table covering fewer Unix versions and a somewhat different set of tasks. See http://unixguide.net/cgi-bin/unixguide.cgi coolcommands is a search engine giving one-line command examples: http://www.coolcommands.com/index.php?option=com_cc&Itemid=28 Solaris / HP-UX / FreeBSD / Linux / AIX: http://www.unixporting.com/quickguide.html Solaris / HP-UX: http://soldc.sun.com/migration/hpux/migissues/.
