I wanted to make my "which" command also show aliases, so I tried the
pretty macro from the which man page.  It didn't work.

I decided I also wanted to list functions, so I needed a better approach.
Here's my attempt at a bash function for which:

which ()
{
    builtin alias $* 2>|/dev/null;
    set | grep ^$*;
    /usr/bin/which $* 2>|/dev/null | grep -v ^no
}


Try entering "which which".

Anyone know of an improved approach?
