SYNOPSIS
bcd [options] [arguments]
DESCRIPTION
The bcd command is not a recognized standard utility in major Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Arch). Running bcd in a typical shell results in 'command not found'. It does not appear in coreutils, util-linux, or common packages, and no man page (man bcd) exists.
It may refer to a custom script, third-party tool (e.g., Binary Coded Decimal manipulator in embedded systems), or alias in specific environments like proprietary software or old Unix variants. Check local installations with which bcd or locate bcd. If intending bc (arbitrary precision calculator), cd (change directory), or bcdedit (Windows boot config), clarify for accurate info.
CAVEATS
Not available in standard Linux repositories; likely custom or non-existent. Verify PATH and packages before use.
VERIFICATION STEPS
Run command -v bcd, apt search bcd (Debian/Ubuntu), or yum search bcd (RHEL). Install via source if custom project.
HISTORY
No documented history in POSIX, GNU, or BSD standards. Possibly niche tool from specialized toolchains (e.g., microcontroller programming for BCD handling) predating 2000s, but unverified in modern Linux.
