sift more thoroughly thru unixlib, the directory listing
functions are incredible slow: compare *ex and *cat and
you know what I mean. unixlib seems to use OS routines that
*ex uses (read full file info). Prog could be speeded up
by probably 300%,if another readdir() function is available.
Next release,sorry folks.
detect argc[0] = 'which' (program name as called),
and break of search when the very first match for <name>
has been found.This needs the hunt() function to return
something, as well as tidying up help texts,so 'which'
users don't get help for a mysterious 'whereis' program.
I should obey GNU style a bit more.Then again this was no
project to create 'whereis',but a project to play with Unixlib.
