### Determining when a command is a Coreutils command

To check if a command is provided by Coreutils (versus being built-into Windows), use the `--version` argument. When used with a Coreutils command, this will indicate its version. For example, `ls --version`, could respond:

```
ls (uutils coreutils) 0.8.0
```
