``path real`` returns the normalized, physical versions of all paths. That means it resolves symlinks and does what ``path normalize`` does: it squashes duplicate "/" (except for two leading "//"), collapses "../" with earlier components and removes "." components.
It is the same as ``realpath``, as it creates the "real", canonical version of the path. As such it can't operate on nonexistent paths.
It is the same as ``realpath``, as it creates the "real", canonical version of the path. However, for nonexistent paths it will resolve as far as it can and normalize the nonexistent part.
It returns 0 if any normalization or resolution was done, i.e. any given path wasn't in canonical form.
