I'm often uncertain, whether a program is a script, or a binary.
And where is it installed?
So I wrote a script, which looks
which command would be used (/usr/bin/foo /usr/local/bin/foo ?)
what kind of file it is (script, elf-binary?)
and if it is a script, it is printed to stdout.

Since I made it (and made some improvements) I'm using it quiete often, so perhaps it's useful for others too:

It's GPL:

Code:
#/bin/bash
#	(c) 2003 bashguru Stefan Wagner, Berlin Schneberg, license: GPL
#	For a programm:
#			find where it is (especially if there is more than one):
#		<which> 
#			what kind of hack is this (elf-binary, bash-script?):
#		<file> 
#			if it is a script, print it:
#		<cat>
if [[ $# -ne 1 ]]; then
	echo "Usage: whatmakes.sh THIS"
	exit
fi
PROG=$1
LOCATION=$(which $PROG)
# not needed, 'file' shows it as well: echo $LOCATION
file $LOCATION
ART=$(file $LOCATION | grep -c text)
if [[ ART -eq 1 ]]; then
	cat $LOCATION
fi
Don't miss the final empty line
Put it into ~/bin or /usr/local/bin to have it easy accessible in your path.

Feedback is welcome.
manpage and option --help should be made... I know...
