pwhere - Pure Perl implementation of where
version 1.17
$ pwhere perl
pwhere
is a command-line utility program for finding paths to other programs based on the user's PATH
. It is similar to the usually Unix tool `where', and tries to emulate its functionality, but is written purely in Perl (uses the module File::Which
), so is portable.
Bugs should be reported via the GitHub issue tracker https://github.com/uperl/App-pwhich/issues For other issues, contact the maintainer.
Perl API for pwhich
Guts of this script.
This module does not know about built-in shell commands, as the built-in command which
and where
usually do.
This module is fully supported back to Perl 5.8.1. It may work on 5.8.0.
If you want these executables installed without the p
prefix (useful on platforms like windows that do not have their own native which or where), set PERL_APP_PWHICH_NO_PREFIX
to no-prefix
during install of this module.
