[Gambas-devel] Gambas 1.9.46 Help

[José Luis Redrejo]

In Debian we have the same behaviour, there is not "which" text in the
answer:

jose at ...477...:~$ which firefox
/usr/bin/firefox
jose at ...477...:~$

So, we share the bug and, obviously, we'll share the fix, unless Benoît
offers a better solution.
