I occasionally use help to find answers to frequently asked questions. Typing
help -tty returns the following:
Look in a printed manual for general help if you can. You should
have someone show you some things and then read "Using and Managing
AIX" manual.
The commands:
man -k keyword lists commands relevant to a keyword
man command prints out the manual pages for a command
are helpful; other basic commands are:
cat - concatenates files (and just prints them out)
.
.
.
etc, etc, etc
