    Right, and "dir" is not a "window utility" it is a command
    $ help |head -n1 For more information on a specific command, type HELP command-name
      Point conceded, but so is "sort". At least on my box, "sort -?" gives something else than "sort /?".
      C:\>help|head -n1 'head' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
        But so is gnu sort , it is also called sort on windows
