Linux hash, hashstat, and unhash commands
Updated: 08/02/2019 by Computer Hope
On SunOS, the hash, hashstat, and unhash commands access the hash table. If the table is unhashed, the C shell stops using hashed values and will spend time searching the path directories to locate a command.
Tip
For information about the hash command in bash see our bash hash command page.
Syntax
hash [-r] [name]
unhash
hashstat
| -r | Removes all current tracked aliases. |
| name | Location of hash. |
Examples
unhash
Remove internal hash table.
hashshat
Display the hash statistics. Output resembles the following:
66 hits, 33 misses, 66%
