lsd appears to be an alias and not a file since "find" turned up nil when
I ran a search for it. You can probably put your script in the bindir
without screwing up the system but you may not be able to invoke it except
through with the full path if aliases have precedence over executables on
your path... I'm not sure if they do or not.
