Explanation:
The i key is next to the u key. I reckon it's a typo for "simulable". This would mean the command can be emulated by a key combination.

The word "emulation" seems to be what you require. Something like "the command of type X, which can be emulated, is placed in the startup script (or routine)".

commande du type ... ou similable est positionné dans le script startup
X or similar commands in the start up script


Explanation:
it means X commands or ones related to those commands....as in a command interpreter....something that interprets a command...







Shell scripts
There are several shells, which are also known as command interpreters:

Bourne shell sh The original Unix shell by S. R. Bourne
C-shell csh Berkeley University shell
extended C-shell tcsh Ohio State University shell
Korn shell ksh AT&T shell by David Korn
Bourne again shell bash Free Software Foundation shell
Z shell zsh one of the many lesser known shells

Shell scripts are different for each shell. Below ***similar commands*** grouped together when ever possible. There are not always equal commands in different shells. That is one of the reasons having several shells.
