(description
- "GNU Which takes one or more arguments. For each of its arguments
-it prints to stdout the full path of the executables that would have
-been executed when this argument had been entered at the shell
-prompt. It does this by searching for an executable or script in the
-directories listed in the environment variable PATH using the same
-algorithm as bash(1).")
