man which
brings up the tcsh manual entry with the following builtin:
which command (+)
Displays the command that will be executed by the
shell after substitutions, path searching, etc.
The builtin command is just like which(1), but it
correctly reports tcsh aliases and builtins and is
10 to 100 times faster. See also the which-com-
mand editor command.
