Try pressing the TAB key at the command line. For example, "apt<TAB>" will show you all the commands that start with "apt". (This is called "completion" if you want to look it up in your shell's manpage.) (Different implementions have the <TAB> completion set up differently -- you may need to press <TAB> twice.)
