 5.6 '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
 'mktex...' 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.
