NAME
     whereis - locate programs

SYNOPSIS
     whereis name [...]

DESCRIPTION
     The whereis utility checks the standard binary directories for the speci-

     0	   All names were successfully resolved.
     1	   Some names were resolved but not all.
     2	   No names were resolved.
     -1	   A system error occurred.

     available in this version.
