I came across one of the control programs in a manual page, and then I
used ls to look for others:

slackbox:~$ ls /usr/sbin/*control
/usr/sbin/ancontrol  /usr/sbin/kbdcontrol /usr/sbin/raycontrol
/usr/sbin/cdcontrol  /usr/sbin/l2control  /usr/sbin/sdpcontrol
/usr/sbin/fdcontrol  /usr/sbin/lptcontrol /usr/sbin/sicontrol
/usr/sbin/fwcontrol  /usr/sbin/memcontrol /usr/sbin/vidcontrol
/usr/sbin/hccontrol  /usr/sbin/mlxcontrol /usr/sbin/wicontrol
slackbox:~$ ls /sbin/*control
/sbin/atacontrol  /sbin/comcontrol  /sbin/spppcontrol
/sbin/camcontrol  /sbin/conscontrol
