Hi Spencer, Typically via 'which' from a terminal: ~ which sh /bin/sh There is also 'whereis', but that will only check default system binary paths, whereas 'which' will also search your $PATH. In this case, they return the same information: ~ whereis sh /bin/sh It sounds like you have the "Safe Files" option in Bitdefender enabled, which is optional, which is why the messages. I use BF also. Regards, Marc Schwartz _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
