shell equivalents for justpath commands

[epogrebnyak]

Justpath would print what shell command you can do instead.

Easy for simple commands, less obvious for bigger commamds. Also a lot of comments this is trivial in bash.

Maybe start with just one flag --shell and then add --bash, --zsh or --cmd

Wonder why I get this output:

     1 /home/codespace/.local/bin
     1 /home/codespace/.local/bin

for echo $PATH | tr ":" "\n" | uniq -c as there isclearly a duplicate folder

After sorting uniq does see the duplicates:

@epogrebnyak ➜ /workspaces/what-the-path (main) $ echo $PATH | tr ":" "\n" | sort | uniq -dc
      2 /home/codespace/.local/bin
@epogrebnyak ➜ /workspaces/what-the-path (main) $ echo $PATH | tr ":" "\n" |  uniq -dc

Ok, uniq need sorting: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/114140/uniq-wont-remove-duplicate

[epogrebnyak]

Maybe the flag should be called --recepies or --cookbook - easier to type.
