whichs

description

whichs is a command line tool to find files in $PATH, like the shell built-in commands which, but which only returns the first result while whichs returns all.

install

I want to use the whichs for npm package name, but while I publishing it, I got 404 error and it wasted me an hour to find out that it's not an authToken issue, you just can not use the whichs name😅

npm i findp -g

usage

# find all excutable files(or link) in $PATH named node
whichs node

# find all files(or link) in $PATH named node
whichs node -a

notice

• whichs does not return shell built-in commands like cd
• if whichs finds a link, it will print something like

/path/to/link -> /path/to/real/file
