Description : prints out full path of execuatbles
Which prints out the full path of the executables that bash would execute
when the passed program names would have been entered on the shell prompt.
It uses the exact same algorithm as bash. Tildes and a dot in the PATH
are now expanded to the full path by default. Options allow users to
print "~/*" or "./*" and/or to print all executables that match any
directory in the PATH.
Note that bin/which is occupied by debianutils package, I suggest
using bin/gwhich instead (and ask the debianutils maintainer to remove
the debianutils' which, since this one is better)
