Do all bash versions support `type -path'?

i've just always used `type -p` myself ...

but, bash-2.05 supports it for sure and that was released back in 2001 ...

Perhaps /usr/bin/which would be safer, dunno.

which can be tricky as it behaves a little differently on some
platforms and may not always even be installed ... OS X for example is
notorious for being a piece of crap ... `which asdfasdf` will echo the
error to stdout and exit with a status of 0 even though the test
obviously failed
