This seems right, the '-a' switch doesn't take wildcards:
$ whence -a zsh
/usr/local/bin/zsh
/usr/bin/zsh
/bin/zsh
... however the '-m' switch accepts wildcards:
$ whence -m "zsh*"
/usr/local/bin/zsh
/usr/local/bin/zsh-ok
/usr/local/bin/zsh-test1
/usr/local/bin/zsh-test2-orig-rebuild
/bin/zsh4
/bin/zsh5
... yet, although '/usr/local/bin/zsh' is found, all of the other files
found by
'whence -a zsh' above are missed. How is it that '/usr/local/bin/zsh'
matches
'zsh*' but '/bin/zsh' does not?
