     WHICH(1)                                                 WHICH(1)



     NAME
          which - locate a program file including aliases and paths
          (csh only)

     SYNOPSIS
          which [ -a ] [ name ] ...

     DESCRIPTION
          Which takes a list of names and looks for the files which
          would be executed had these names been given as commands.
          Each argument is expanded if it is aliased, and searched for
          along the user's path.  Both aliases and paths are taken
          from the user's .cshrc file.  The -a switch reports all
          instances rather than just the first one.

     FILES
          ~/.cshrc  source of aliases and path values

     DIAGNOSTICS
          A diagnostic is given for names which are aliased to more
          than a single word, or if an executable file with the
          argument name was not found in the path.

     BUGS
          Must be executed by a csh, since only csh's know about
          aliases.

     ORIGIN
          4.2 BSD
