I actually have the below clashes function in my bashrc to detect overloaded names, and a few compgen aliases for sorted formatted command lists. Clashes takes a few seconds to chew through the 3000ish commands on my Steam Deck.

I also discovered the comma thing myself, and use it for `xdg-open <web-search-url>` aliases, i.e. `,aw xdg` searches archwiki for "xdg", since the SteamOS on this thing doesn't have manpages.

  alias words='iftty xargs'   # join by spaces
  alias c='compgen -c | sort -u | words' # eg: c | grep ^k | chop
  # ... a for aliases, f for functions etc ...
  alias man='g !archman'      # https://man.archlinux.org
  alias ,aw='g !aw'           # https://wiki.archlinux.org
  alias ,mdn='g !mdn'         # https://developer.mozilla.org
  alias ,nix='g !nixpkgs'     # https://search.nixos.org
  # ... a dozen others ...

  g() { local IFS=+; xdg-open "https://ddg.gg/?q=$*"; }
  iftty() { if [ -t 1 ]; then "$@"; else cat; fi; }

  chop() { # [TABS] [STARTCOL] [CUTOPTS..] # eg. ls ~/.co* | chop
    set -- "${1:-2}" "${2:-1}" "${@:3}"
    cut -c "$2"-$(($2+8*$1-2)) "${@:3}" | column #| less
  }

  clashes() { # [CMDS..] # print overloads eg: clashes $(c)
    (($#)) || set -- $(compgen -A alias -A function)
    local ty cmd; for cmd; do ty=($(type -at "$cmd"))
    ((${#ty[@]}>1)) && echo -n "$cmd "; done; echo
  }
