:program: `realpath` follows all symbolic links encountered for the provided :envvar: `PATH` , printing the absolute path resolved. :ref: `fish <cmd-fish>` provides a :command: `realpath` -alike builtin intended to be enrich systems where no such command is installed by default.

If a :command: `realpath` command exists, that will be preferred.
`` builtin realpath `` will explicitly use the fish implementation of :command: `realpath` .
