    /usr/bin/ps2pdf12
    /usr/bin/ps2pdf13
    ...[snip]...
    /usr/bin/simpdftex
    /usr/bin/dvipdf
    
  • To find executables that don't have 'e' after 'win' in their name:

    C:\> grepath -e "win[^e]"
    C:\windows\system32\winhlp32.exe
    C:\windows\system32\winver.exe
    C:\windows\winhlp32.exe
    C:\windows\winhelp.exe
