What were you trying to do?
Run the which script. For example, "which test"
What's wrong:
Script fails with the error: "OSTYPE: Undefined variable"
The script runs fine under tcsh, but fails when invoked under any
other shell, including sh, csh, and bash. A workaround is to invoke it
using tcsh, ie: "tcsh which test"
What should have happened:
It should have given the path to test
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
man which
