.Nm
takes a list of names and looks for the files which would be
executed had these names been given as commands.

.Ev PATH .
.Pp
If the
.Fl a
flag is given,
.Nm
will continue to search the
.Ev PATH
until all instances of a program file are found.

The

command appeared in
.Bx 3.0 .

This implementation does not expand
.Xr csh 1
aliases, and is shell agnostic.
This is really a feature.
