I am trying to install a build tool on my Mac called please; however it seems the word "please" is already aliased to "sudo" and I don't know where that alias is being set.

I'm using Oh My Zsh which means I have a ~/.zshrc file instead of a ~/.bashrc file. But I can tell you that nowhere in my ~/.zshrc file nor in my ~/.bash_profile file are any aliases being set on the word "please."

Still, when I type please in the terminal I see this:

usage: sudo -h | -K | -k | -V
usage: sudo -v [-AknS] [-g group] [-h host] [-p prompt] [-u user]
usage: sudo -l [-AknS] [-g group] [-h host] [-p prompt] [-U user] [-u user] [command]
usage: sudo [-AbEHknPS] [-C num] [-g group] [-h host] [-p prompt] [-u user] [VAR=value] [-i|-s] [<command>]
usage: sudo -e [-AknS] [-C num] [-g group] [-h host] [-p prompt] [-u user] file ...

And when I type which please it just says this:

please: aliased to sudo

Are there other locations I'm not thinking of where aliases can be defined? How do I get rid of this annoying alias?
