FINDPATH(1)

NAME
findpath - find file in path path - display path directories

SYNOPSIS
/usr/local/bin/findpath file

DESCRIPTION
Findpath will report on the location of file, searching every directory in the path (as defined in the $PATH variable), much like the operating system does when searching $PATH to execute a program. It is handy for finding out where in your path a command resides.

Findpath accepts metacharacters (which must be escaped to prevent interpretation by the shell) according to the rules listed in regcmp(3).

Findpath is linked to path, which simply displays a list of directories to be searched. It is much faster than 'echo $PATH|tr ":" " "'.

SEE ALSO
csh(1), ed(1), regcmp(3).
