Some while back I wrote a programmer's tool that displays the available
commands,
by namespace, in a tree.  If you click on a command it shows you
information about:
the proc definition for procs, and so on.  To write this, I needed to
figure out for
each command what kind of command it was, i.e., how it was defined: a
proc, a command,
a namespace ensemble.  The information is available, but not all in one
place.
[info cmdtype] puts it in one place.  It's a convenience.
