In both the latest release of KSH (and I think the previous one) the behavior of 'whence' seems strange.
$ $ pwd /home/me/a $ # do a 'whence -a' on a regular program $ whence -a proga proga is a tracked alias for /usr/local/bin/proga $ $ # now do a 'whence -a' on a SHELL builtin $ ls cut ls: cut: No such file or directory $ whence -a cut cut is a shell builtin cut is a tracked alias for /home/me/a/cut $ $ Why does 'whence -a' always show builtins as being a "tracked alias" for something in the current working directory that doesn't even exist? Is this the proper behavior? This seems a bit strange to me.
