NAME
       twhich -	locates	a file listing in transcripts

SYNOPSIS
       twhich [	-aIrV ]	[ -K command ] file
       twhich -s -K command [ -aIV ] file

DESCRIPTION
       twhich  searches	 each  transcript listed in the	command	file ( the de-
       fault name is command.K ) for file.  Transcripts	are searched in	prece-
       dence order.  The first transcript listed in the	command	file  has  the
       lowest  precedence,  the	next higher, and the last has the highest.  If
       any special files are listed, the special.T transcript  will  have  the
       absolute	 highest  precedence.  file must be the	full decoded path (See
       fsdiff(1)), as listed in	the transcript.

       If file is found, twhich	prints a message to the	standard output	 indi-
       cating  the  transcript,	line number and	matching line, and then	exits.
       With the	-a option, twhich will	continue  to  search  all  transcripts
       listed  in  the command file for	file.  With the	-r option, twhich will
       search for each path component, progressively building to file,	behav-
       ing as above when matches are found. If a path element in file is miss-
       ing,  twhich  will  print "not found" and continue looking for the next
       element.

       The -s option is	used to	run twhich on a	radmind	server.	 When run on a
       server, the command file	to search must be given	with  the  -K  option.
       All  listed  transcripts	must be	in the respective radmind server tran-
       script directory.

       -K command	  specifies  a	command	 file,	by  default  /var/rad-
			  mind/client/command.K

       -s		  indicates  that  twhich  is  running	on  a  radmind
			  server.

       -r		  searches for each path element in file.

       -V		  displays the version number of twhich	and exits.

FILES

			  name of the default command file.
