Hi there,
on redhat, /usr/bin/mh is a symbolic link to /usr/bin
This is most likely because the mh scripts expect to find their support
files in /usr/bin/mh,
yet the fsstnd states that binaries should be in /usr/bin 9and not
subdirectories thereof).
So with that symbolic link you can address mh scripts as
/usr/bin/mh/scriptname or /usr/bin/scriptname.
