+.TH WHEREIS 1 "June 2012" "util-linux" "User Commands"
+.SH NAME
+whereis \- locate the binary, source, and manual page files for a command
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B whereis
+.RB [ options ]
+.RB [ \-BMS
+.IR directory ...
+.BR \-f ]
+.IR filename ...
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B whereis
+locates source/binary and manuals sections for specified files.
+The supplied names are first stripped of leading pathname components
+and any (single) trailing extension of the form
+.BI . ext\fR,\fP
+for example,
+.BR .c .
+Prefixes of
+.B s.
+resulting from use of source code control are also dealt with.
+.B whereis
+then attempts to locate the desired program in
+a list of standard Linux places.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.IP "\fB\-b\fP"
+Search only for binaries.
+.IP "\fB\-m\fP"
+Search only for manual sections.
+.IP "\fB\-s\fP"
+Search only for sources.
+.IP "\fB\-u\fP"
+Search for unusual entries.  A file is said to be unusual if it does
+not have one entry of each requested type. Thus
+.RB ` "whereis\ \ \-m\ \ \-u\ \ *" '
+asks for those files in the current
+directory which have no documentation.
+.IP "\fB\-B \fIlist\fP"
+Change or otherwise limit the places where
+.B whereis
+searches for binaries by white-space separated list of directories.
+.IP "\fB\-M \fIlist\fP"
+Change or otherwise limit the places where
+.B whereis
+searches for manual sections by white-space separated list of directories.
+.IP "\fB\-S \fIlist\fP"
+.B \-S
+Change or otherwise limit the places where
+.B whereis
+searches for sources white-space separated list of directories.
+.IP "\fB\-f\fP"
+Terminate the last directory list and signals the start of file names,
+and
+.I must
+be used when any of the
+.BR \-B ,
+.BR \-M ,
+or
+.BR \-S
+options are used.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+Find all files in
+.B /usr/bin
+which are not documented
+in
+.B /usr/man/man1
+with source in
+.BR /usr/src :
+.IP
+.nf
+.ft B
+$ cd /usr/bin
+$ whereis \-u \-M /usr/man/man1 \-S /usr/src \-f *
+.fi
+.ft R
+.SH FILES
+.B whereis
+has basic set of hard-coded paths (see below). If the option
+.B \-B
+is not specified then also follows
+.B $PATH
+environment variable (since version 2.21).
+
+.TP 20
+/{bin,sbin,etc}
+.TP
+/usr/{lib,bin,old,new,local,games,include,etc,src,man,sbin,X386,TeX,g++-include}
+.TP
+/usr/local/{X386,TeX,X11,include,lib,man,etc,bin,games,emacs}
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.BR chdir (2V)
+.SH BUGS
+Since
+.B whereis
+uses
+.BR chdir (2V)
+to run faster, pathnames given with the
+.BR \-M ,
+.BR \-S ,
+or
+.B \-B
+must be full; that is, they must begin with a
+.RB ` / '.
+.PP
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+The whereis command is part of the util-linux package and is available from
+ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
