    ros:env                # list ROS Environments including the ROS_MASTER_URI
    ros:nodes              # list all active nodes when Ros master is running
    ros:provider           # list all active providers when Ros master is running
    ros:publishers         # list all active publishers when Ros master is running

The ROS commands are composed of two parts that are separated by a colon: <Command_Scope>:<Command_Function>, when two command functions have the same name, but different scope names, you have to specify the Command_Scope.

These commands can be accessed by the user both from the command line (through the Felix GoGo shell), if the SM is launched directly, or passing from the Felix web console (accessible at localhost:8081), this web console can also be used to manage the bundles started in the SM.
