• builtins: echo, cd, pwd, export, unset, env, exit
• File I/O management by redirection: >, >>, <, <<
• interprocess communication by pipes: |
• signal: Ctrl-C, Ctrl-D, Ctrl-\
• expand environment variables (e.g. $PWD, $PATH ..)
• expand exit status: $?
• expand wildcards: *
• control operators: ;, &&, ||
