Being as ksh is my shell of choice, I'm all for it. But given that basis, I was surprised to find that neither "type" nor "whence" is supported by the POSIX shell. > So the solution is to use command -v. Hardly -- "type" is probably more portable than "command -v" is. Particularly since "command -v" is optional in the latest version of POSIX (it's part of the User Portability Utilities option). -Larry Jones Things are never quite as scary when you've got a best friend. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Groff mailing list Groff@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff
