NAME
       which - locate a command

SYNOPSIS
       which [-a] filename ...

DESCRIPTION
       which  returns  the pathnames of the files which would be

commands in a strictly POSIX-conformant shell.  It does this by
searching the  PATH  for executable files matching the names of the
arguments.

OPTIONS
       -a     print all matching pathnames of each argument

EXIT STATUS
       0      if all specified commands are found and executable

       1      if one or more specified commands is nonexistent or not
executable

       2      if an invalid option is specified
