I get back
$ which compress
which: no compress in (/home/lwv26n/bin/i686:/home/lwv26n/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/atria/bin:/projects/clearcase/bin)

Thanks.  It looks like, on this red hat 9 system, I currently don't

I have noticed a number of man pages missing as well - I am wondering
if the system admin for the system may have 'skimped' a bit when
loading the system...
