Which interactive shell is the user in? mksh: * which -a zsh: * which -a * whence -a * type -a * where fish: * type -a For csh and tcsh, this obviously wasn't working in the first place, as the builtin which commands don't understand an `-a` switch. For other shells, you could install GNU which or any other alternative once they pass through the NEW queue. However, this functionality does not belong in the Essential set.
