There's no "which" builtin in bash. IIRC, only tcsh and zsh have one. On Debuntu, "which" is an sh script (as it was a csh script in the past in Unix): th@sid ~ $ file /bin/which /bin/which: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable th@sid ~ $ It only shows a command with an absolute path and it only has a "-a" option: th@sid ~ $ which -a which /usr/bin/which /bin/which th@sid ~ $ In bash, "command -v", "command -V", "type -t" will show what an executable is. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
