Oh yeah, which is there, and it's an external command. Though it happens to be a 'csh' script, which is most likely the problem!
Personally, as somebody who tries to use csh-derived shells as little as possible, and as somebody who uses many different Unices, I never use "which". I reason that since which tends to read .cshrc files to determine the PATH, that the output of which is never as reliable as I could get via other methods. I'd hate to let an old, unused .cshrc file lead me to bad information.
I never thought of that. I use which all the time just to see where things are. Guess I'll have to try to break that habit and get into using "type".
