kpsewhich: Standalone path searching

The Kpsewhich program exercises the path searching functionality independent of any particular application. This can also be useful as a sort of find program to locate files in your TeX hierarchies, perhaps in administrative scripts. It is used heavily in the distributed `MakeTeX...' scripts.

Synopsis:

kpsewhich option... filename...

The options and filename(s) to look up can be intermixed. Options can start with either `-' or `--', and any unambiguous abbreviation is accepted.

• Path searching options: Changing the mode, resolution, etc.
• Auxiliary tasks: Path and variable expansion.
• Standard options: --help and --version.
