SYNOPSIS

mach

AVAILABILITY

SUNWcsu

DESCRIPTION

The mach command displays the processor-type of the current host. 

SEE ALSO

arch(1), uname(1)

NOTES

mach and uname −p return equivalent values; therefore, Independent Software Vendors (ISV) and others who need to ascertain processor type are encouraged to use uname with the −p option instead of the mach command.  The mach command is provided for compatibility with previous releases, but generally its use is discouraged.
