Perfect, that did what I wanted more precisely:
-----------------------
(require 'help-fns)
(require 'seq)
(defun aa/show-interactive-commands ()
(interactive)
(seq-sort-by #'length #'<
(all-completions ""
#'help--symbol-completion-table
(lambda (f)
(commandp f)))))
-----------------------
Returns a list (sorted by size) of available interactive commands. I can
now make them known to i3 to integrate them on demand. Great!
Thanks,
Alex
