UNAME(1-SysV)       RISC/os Reference Manual        UNAME(1-SysV)



NAME
     uname - obtain current system information

SYNOPSIS
     name [ -a ] [ -A ] [ -s ] [ -n ] [ -r ] [ -v ] [ -m ] [ -t ]
     [ -b ]

DESCRIPTION
     uname prints the requested pieces of the current system
     information on the standard output, separated by spaces.
     The information is obtained from the system call uname(2).
     See that manual page for the specific field descriptions.
     By default, the sysname field value is printed.  The values
     are printed in the following order:  sysname, nodename,
     release, version, machine, mtype, and baserel.

     Note that the fields sysname, nodename, release, version,
     and machine are considered to be standard fields.  The oth-
     ers are MIPS -specific fields.

     The valid options are:

     -a   Print all of the standard values available.

     -A   Print all of the values, including the Mips-specific
          values.

     -m   Print the value of the machine field.

     -n   Print the value of the nodename field.

     -r   Print the value of the release field.

     -s   Print the value of the sysname field.

     -v   Print the value of the version field.

     -t   (Mips-specific) Print the value of the mtype field.

     -b   (Mips-specific) Print the value of the baserel field.

ERRORS
     The field values in this version of uname do not contain
     spaces or tabs.  This is not guaranteed to be the case in
     every system that has a uname command.
