[net.micro.atari] Commands within COMMAND.PRG

Does anybody know of any other built-in commands within COMMAND.PRG
in addition to those documented in the GEMDOS manual, namely:

    dir     type    cd      md      rd      del(era)
    ren     show    copy

I came across one that saved me a lot of hair-pulling:  EXIT
This command terminates COMMAND.PRG and drops you back to the desktop
so you don't have to re-boot every time.  I seems a great oversight
that they did not mention this; or did I just miss something.

It is also possible to invoke COMMAND.PRG recursively (while you're still
within COMMAND.PRG).  It doesn't do anything useful but could be quite
interesting at 4 o'clock in the morning.  Of course, you have to 'exit'
each one.
