If you ever want the more full version for something else, I think
command -v "$command" >/dev/null
is the canonical way to ask a POSIX shell "could I invoke $command?".
It exits successfully if $command is a function, an alias, a shell
built-in, the basename of an executable in $PATH, an executable found
by relative or absolute path, an alias or a shell reserved word.
