I kind of dislike your solution. Does NetBSD ship /bin/which by default? I think replacing whereis with "which -a" would be a lot better. I don't think there's a 100% standard way to do this in POSIX, as which isn't POSIX either, and your solution seems... hacky?


"command" seems to be the POSIX way to do this?
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/

Though "whereis python3" shows the following on my system:

python3: /usr/bin/python3.9-config /usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/lib/python3.9 /usr/lib/python3 /etc/python3.9 /etc/python3 /usr/local/lib/python3.9 /usr/include/python3.9 /usr/share/python3 /usr/share/man/man1/python3.1.gz

"which -a python3" returns:

/usr/bin/python3
/bin/python3

And "command -p -v" returns:

/bin/python3

I don't know if we need all the results from "whereis"?
