.. program::realpath
realpath - convert a path to an absolute path without symlinks
==============================================================
Synopsis
--------
**realpath** [*options*] *PATH*
Description
-----------
.. only:: builder_man
NOTE: This page documents the fish builtin ``realpath``.
To see the documentation on the ``realpath`` command you might have,
use ``command man realpath``.
: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`.
The following options are available:
- ``-s`` or ``--no-symlinks``: Don't resolve symlinks, only make paths absolute, squash multiple slashes and remove trailing slashes.
