I’m stuck on Stage #EZ5.

Here are my logs:

```auto
Expected output to contain "nonexistent not found\\n", got "nonexistent: command not found\r\n$ "

```

“nonexistent not found” is incorrect answer for real console.

@gnomeby nice catch! I’ve updated the instructions. The test expectations are correct (we run them against bash, zsh and dash to be sure):

My Gentoo:

```bash
type erer
bash: type: erer: not found

```

bash 5.1\_p16-r6

and

```sh
sh-5.1$ type erer
sh: type: erer: not found

```

But OK I can use your variant.

dash 0.5.12

```dash
# type r
r: not found

```

Aha… Looks like we’ve handled this in tests to make it compatible with all shells:

I assume bash is far more widely used than zsh, so I think we’ll use the format you shared in the instructions then. Thanks for highlighting this, will update in the instructions!
