I find some commands like 'df' are missing

In Termux, df is a wrapper around /system/bin/df. We do not provide manpages for system binaries for 2 reasons:

  • System programs are ROM-specific.
  • Android OS simply does not have manpages for them and we can't pick ones from the original as it may not be valid for binary in /system/bin.
