I just tried using STRQSH:

   $
> which rm
   /QOpenSys/usr/bin/rm
   $
> file /QOpenSys/usr/bin/rm
   /QOpenSys/usr/bin/rm:   symbolic link to ../../QIBM/ProdData/OS400/PASE/bin/r
   m  
   $

I navigate to the symbolic link:

> pwd
   /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OS400/PASE/bin
   $

and the "file" command gives me a similar result to QP2TERM:
> file rm
   rm:             executable (RISC System/6000)
   $

"echo $PATH" [within STRQSH]:
/usr/bin:.:/QOpenSys/usr/bin
"echo $PASE_PATH" [within STRQSH]:
/QOpenSys/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/local/bin:.

Looks like from STRQSH:
1) "which" is a PASE command.
2) PASE commands will not use $PATH from STRQSH, but its own $PASE_PATH
3) Typing "rm" will execute the ILE version (how can I be sure?)

There is no "which" program in QSHELL.
