What commands are available depends on what your system is. Let me add another to your list to help you find out:
uname and uname -a and cat /etc/issue
Don't mistake the TV for the show, by the way. None of these are "putty commands", you're just using putty to talk to something else. You could have used any other terminal, remote or local.

WALL(1) User Commands WALL(1)
NAME
wall -- write a message to users
SYNOPSIS
wall [-n] [-t TIMEOUT] [file]
DESCRIPTION
Wall displays the contents of file or, by default, its standard input, on the terminals of all currently logged in users. The command will
cut over 79 character long lines to new lines. Short lines are white space padded to have 79 characters. The command will always put carriage
return and new line at the end of each line.
Only the super-user can write on the terminals of users who have chosen to deny messages or are using a program which automatically denies
messages.
Reading from a file is refused when the invoker is not superuser and the program is suid or sgid.
OPTIONS
-n, --nobanner
Supress banner
-t, --timeout TIMEOUT
Write timeout to terminals in seconds. Argument must be positive integer. Default value is 300 seconds, which is a legacy from
time when people ran terminals over modem lines.
-V, --version
Output version and exit.
-h, --help Output help and exit.
SEE ALSO
mesg(1), talk(1), write(1), shutdown(8)
HISTORY
A wall command appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.
AVAILABILITY
The wall command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
