Question

linux

How to find out the names of applications to run them through the sudo command? I have Linux on a virtual machine in Windows 10. I want to run at least some application through the sudo command (needed by assignment), but I can’t figure out how to find out their names. Pointing a finger at the sky, ala: sudo calculator
either
sudo word
or
sudo gimp
lead to nothing.

Answer 1

dial
ls /sbin
and look at the list of "applications".
You can also ls /bin and ls /usr/bin

Answer 2

through the right mouse button open the link on the desktop in a text editor
in the Exec parameter will be the path and name of the executable file.

Answer 3

Well, for example
, install mc. sudo apt install mc
run mc sudo mc
the same with a text editor, for example nano (it is often included in the system by default)
in fact, any application can be launched through sudo. question of expediency

Answer 4

ls /usr/sbin
(binaries are stored in sbin that can only be run as root)
but what if you remember only part of the name

ls /usr/sbin | grep точтопомнишь
#например я не помню как e4defrag начинается
ls /usr/sbin | grep defrag
