+1. Since I run with 2.6 at
I think it's worthwhile.

Ok, sorry, that *is* a valid use case. Since Trent on his webpage
suggests his code as a stdlib replacement I support this now. (But I'm
not going to take further action -- I hope you can get one of the
regular 2.6 dev guys to adopt this case. Also, the PSF needs to have a

If you ask me, having it hosted by Trent is probably more helpful for
its popularity than putting it in the Python source distro; the Tools
directory is mostly a poorly-maintained collection of trivia I wrote
many years ago that is now quietly gathering dust.

Trent Mick has a module called which.py that might make a nice
platform-independent replacement for python2.5/Tools/scripts/which.py.

Why which.py?
|which.py| is a small GNU-which replacement. It has the following features:
