Useless POI

Most useless piece of information I've ever received from a unix command:

 spratt@lambda03:~$ type `which pwd`
 /bin/pwd is /bin/pwd

- sdp

Not true, it could be a symbolic link in some cases.

-windowpane

Lambda servers run Ubuntu. Ubuntu represents symlinks as as <file> -> <file>

 cd@t400s:~$ ls /bin/pwd -l
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 31200 2011-02-23 09:24 /bin/pwd

/bin/pwd is not a symlink.
