Locating `subl` in OS X

Question

I have the subl command line tool installed in my machine (OS X 10.9.2). It works fine. But I need to know where it is. So I type:

which subl

in a Terminal window. But the behavior is as if the command did not exist.

As you can imagine, Googling "which command yields no output" is not very helpful.

Answer 1

To find if something is an alias, a shell builtin, or an executable program, use type:

# on my system
$ type dir
dir is aliased to `ls -FaGl`
$ type pwd
pwd is a shell builtin
$ type du
du is /usr/bin/du

It's much faster than using an unindexed locate command.

Answer 2

Use locate to find all filenames with subl

locate subl
