Comment(by wenzeslaus):

 Appearently, there was always a need for documentation like this, see
 [http://jrshelby.com/grass/tutorial60/cmd-xref.htm GRASS GIS 6.0 Command
 Cross-Reference in Bash order]. Sample of the page:

 {{{
 #!html
 <table border=1 cellpadding=5>
 <tr>
 <td align=center colspan=4>
 <b>Database Commands</b>   <font face=arial size=1><a
 href="#top">TOP</a></font>
 </td>
 </tr>


 <tr>
 <td align=center><b>Bash</b></td>
 <td align=center><b>Help</b></td>
 <td align=center><b>Description</b></td>
 <td align=center width=50%><b>GUI(Display Manager)</b></td>
 </tr>

 <tr><td><b>db.columns</b></td>  <td><a
 href="http://grass.baylor.edu/grass60/manuals/html60_user/db.columns.html">doc</a></td>
 <td>list all columns for a given table.</td>  <td>Databases => Database
 information => List columns</td>  </tr>

 <tr><td><b>db.connect</b></td>  <td><a
 href="http://grass.baylor.edu/grass60/manuals/html60_user/db.connect.html">doc</a></td>
 <td>Connect to the database through DBMI.</td>  <td>Databases => Manage
 database => Connect to database</td>  </tr>

 <tr><td><b>db.copy</b></td>  <td><a
 href="http://grass.baylor.edu/grass60/manuals/html60_user/db.copy.html">doc</a></td>
 <td>Copy a table. Either 'from_table' (optionaly with 'where') can be used
 or 'select' option, but not 'from_table' and 'select' at the same
 time.</td>  <td>Databases => Manage database => Copy table</td>  </tr>

 <tr><td><b>db.describe</b></td>  <td><a
 href="http://grass.baylor.edu/grass60/manuals/html60_user/db.describe.html">doc</a></td>
 <td>Describe a table (in detail).</td>  <td>Databases => Database
 information => Describe table</td>  </tr>

 </table>
