Title WhereIs utility
Author Rakesh Juyal
Author Email r.juyal [at] gmail.com
Description 'Whereis' utility is used to search for specified files in
specified environment variable ( by default PATH variable ), also it
accepts wildcard characters..

>>>and to see other options just wtite 'whereis' followed by return.

[ Why/When to use ] sometime we get the error 'Bad command or File
name'
possible reasons are:-
>> wrong spelling
>> File donot exist

So for later reason you can search whether it exist or not.

Example:-
whereis grep.exe vi.exe
whereis /n CLASSPATH myClass.class *.jar
