You could probably just drop "usual" entirely: ..., so you can use
shell commands like "cd".
I'm not sure that "usual" really adds anything there, and might
actually be confusing. Does it mean that "unusual" ones won't work?
What are "unusual" ones?
Possibly make 'like "cd"', parenthetical to further show that it's an
example, and not saying that only commands along the lines of "cd"
will work? ..., so you can use shell commands (for example: cd).
