9.1.10 @command{command-name}

Use the @command command to indicate command names, such as ls or cc.

@command is equivalent to @code in its effects. For example:

The command @command{ls} lists directory contents.

produces

The command ls lists directory contents.

You should write the name of a program in the ordinary text font, rather than using @command, if you regard it as a new English word, such as ‘Emacs’ or ‘Bison’.

When writing an entire shell command invocation, as in ‘ls -l’, you should use either @samp or @code at your discretion.
