Here's a way to generate a lot of that info:

$ ls  ${PATH//:/ } | sort | xargs -n 1 whatis  | more -N

And that only lists items in your path, which misses aliases,
built-ins, and functions.  Two things that struck me about this
pipeline:

1) the sheer number of commands, many of which I am unfamiliar with

$ ls  ${PATH//:/ } | wc -l
2637

2) the number that have no man page
