I'm glad "which" is now included with Debian, but I think it would be better to use a real program (perhaps borrowed from Slackware) instead of the bash shell script. A problem with the bash script is that it doesn't handle shell builtins like one would expect "which" would. For example: which test returns nothing. While which should return /usr/bin/test on a Debian system. Gerry
