Sounds like your install might have problems. When I run s3cmd —help I get the 
list of commands.

mark@orion ~ $ s3cmd --help
Usage: s3cmd [options] COMMAND [parameters]

S3cmd is a tool for managing objects in Amazon S3 storage. It allows for
making and removing "buckets" and uploading, downloading and removing
"objects" from these buckets.

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --configure           Invoke interactive (re)configuration tool. Optionally
                        use as '--configure s3://come-bucket' to test access
                        to a specific bucket instead of attempting to list
                        them all.
  -c FILE, --config=FILE
                        Config file name. Defaults to /Users/mark/.s3cfg
  --dump-config         Dump current configuration after parsing config files
                        and command line options and exit.
  -n, --dry-run         Only show what should be uploaded or downloaded but
                        don't actually do it. May still perform S3 requests to
                        get bucket listings and other information though (only
                        for file transfer commands)
  -e, --encrypt         Encrypt files before uploading to S3.
  --no-encrypt          Don't encrypt files.
  -f, --force           Force overwrite and other dangerous operations.
  --continue            Continue getting a partially downloaded file (only for
                        [get] command).
  --skip-existing       Skip over files that exist at the destination (only
                        for [get] and [sync] commands).
  -r, --recursive       Recursive upload, download or removal.
  --check-md5           Check MD5 sums when comparing files for [sync].
                        (default)
  --no-check-md5        Do not check MD5 sums when comparing files for [sync].
                        Only size will be compared. May significantly speed up
                        transfer but may also miss some changed files.
  -P, --acl-public      Store objects with ACL allowing read for anyone.
  --acl-private         Store objects with default ACL allowing access for you
                        only.

  --no-preserve         Don't store FS attributes

Subject: [S3tools-general] how to get a list of available commands???

When I type 's3cmd' from the shell, I get:

[ryang@bic BAM]$ s3cmd
ERROR: Missing command. Please run with --help for more information.

When I run 's3cmd --help', I get a list of options, but NONE of the commands 
are listed.

So without visiting the webpage, how do I get a list of commands?
