Description
The which that RPM installs is pretty basic and can only search for executables.
There are OS/2 ports such as which-2.1.4_os2.zip or which215.zip, source included (Hobbes) which can search for much more, eg
which (v2.1.4, 2002.06.26) for OS/2, from Newtware 8:2 Usage: which.exe [options] [cmd ... ] Options: (default behavior is to find location of program executed as "cmd") -1 show the first match from all cmd args; display nothing if not found -a list all matches (With -1, list all first matches of cmd args) -b search directories in BOOKSHELF for book (.inf and .pdf) files -d search directories in DPATH for data files -e search directories in a given env var; Example: -e EPMPATH -h search directories in HELP for help (.hlp) files -l search directories in LIBPATH (BEGIN/ENDLIBPATH) for DLLs, LIBs, As -i search directories in C_INCLUDE_PATH for header (.h) files -q quiet mode (only returns error code without onscreen messages) -s show file date/time and size -u revert to OS/2 style '\' dir separator (default is now Unix style '/') cmd name to be searched (wildcards can be used) Examples: -las emx* which.exe -las foo*.bar (override the default extension)
