Please have a blank line above and below sample command display like these
for readability.

Hmm, could you justify "should be" above please?
An example would be "All of the custom commands I wrote to give added
features to users at my installation wanted to be in that directory, not
at the user's home directory, as they mostly operated on files in that
directory", but please do not make me (or other reviewers) guess why.
What I am getting at is that it may be more natural and useful to run
these custom commands in the user's $HOME directory---you would need to
make sure that execl() finds the command you get from the request, perhaps
by prefixing COMMAND_DIR / to the command name, though.
