Thank You. One problem I'm facing is that it is giving me a segmentation fault.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "extern.h"

char* program_name;

int allpaths;			/* -a */
int readalias;			/* -r */
const char *name = "PATH";
char *value;
int result;
char *filename;
char *pathsep = "/";
int i;

/*PASTED ONLY THE REQUIRED PART*/
int processIt(const char* command,  char* paths[])
{
  /* check your arguments! */
  /* At this point, the command line options have been taken care of assuming that only one option was there.
  Now, we need to take this "command" that was sent to us from the main function and then search for this command in the paths.*/
  
  /*paths contains the current path to be searched*/
  for(i=0;i<MAX_PATHS;i++) {
  strcat(paths[i],pathsep);
  strcat(paths[i],command);
  printf("%s",paths[i]);
  /*result = access(paths[i], F_OK);*/
  printf("%d",result); }
  return 0;
} /* processIt! */

processIt is the function I'm using to find the file. Any advice please?

systemd-path

SYSTEMD-PATH(1) 						   systemd-path 						   SYSTEMD-PATH(1)

NAME

       systemd-path - List and query system and user paths

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-path [OPTIONS...] [NAME...]

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-path may be used to query system and user paths. The tool makes many of the paths described in file-hierarchy(7) available for
       querying.

       When invoked without arguments, a list of known paths and their current values is shown. When at least one argument is passed, the path
       with this name is queried and its value shown. The variables whose name begins with "search-" do not refer to individual paths, but instead
       to a list of colon-separated search paths, in their order of precedence.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       --suffix=
	   The printed paths are suffixed by the specified string.

       -h, --help
	   Print a short help text and exit.

       --version
	   Print a short version string and exit.

EXIT STATUS

       On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
