"winamp" listed in bash but not present
I have discovered a strange thing in bash (the version supplied with SuSE 9.0):
When you type the first part of a command name, and then press tab twice, then bash gives a list of commands that begin with the typed text. I used this to find all commands that start with "win" (like wine, winesetup, winmine etc.). One of the items in bash's output was winamp. I wanted to know if winamp was really installed on my Linux system, so I tried to start it with the command "winamp", but then bash said "winamp: command not found". I searched in every directory that was in the PATH variable, but I could not find a winamp binary. So why did bash display it in its list?
