 Description: Perl module for searching paths for executable programs
- File::Which searches directories of a user's PATH (as returned by File::Spec)
- and looks for executable files having the name specified as a parameter to
- which(), simulating the behaviour of the standard `which' program.
+ File::Which simulates the behavior of the standard 'which' program: it
+ searches directories of a user's PATH (as returned by File::Spec)
+ looking for executable files matching a given name.
+ .
+ On Debian /usr/bin/which is guaranteed to be available, but going
+ through the Perl implementation can still save a fork.
