     SYNOPSIS
          uname [-a] [-m] [-n] [-r] [-s] [-v]

     DESCRIPTION
          uname prints the current system name of the UNIX system on
          the standard output file.  It is mainly useful to determine
          which system one is using.  The flag options cause selected
          information returned by uname(2) to be printed:

          -s   print the system name (default).

          -n   print the nodename (the nodename may be a name that the
               system is known by to a communications network).

          -r   print the operating system release.

          -v   print the operating system version.

          -m   print the machine hardware name.

          -a   print all the above information.
