However, there are standardized lists of programs, and it's funny you mention Richard Stallman: guess who named POSIX.

Oh, that's wonderful: It's already there.

POSIX.2: Shell and Utilities (IEEE Std 1003.2-1992)

Command Interpreter
Utility Programs

I am very happy now.

And thanks a lot for your patience with me.

Kind regards,
