whereis: Locate unusual binaries (those that have more or less than one binary on the system).
$ whereis -u *
try on your machine
The command "whereis" is used in the command-line interface (CLI) of a Unix-based operating system to locate the binary, source code, and manual page files for a particular program.
In this specific command, "whereis -u ", the "-u" flag is utilized to display the locations of only the files that are set as non-standard or unusual. The "" is a wildcard character representing all files or programs. Therefore, this command will search for and list the non-standard files and programs on the system.
