Subject: [9front] Equivalent of Unix uname
Date: Sat, 09 Mar 2024 18:31:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cedc2f2e60d6a5b04219af5b692d5486@firemail.cc> (raw)

Hello!
I'm trying to move the first steps into Plan9.
It is not Unix, the user is often warned about this. However, some tools
are available in both systems with almost the same usage, like uptime(1)
for example. Is there anything equivalent to `uname'? I couldn't find
such a tool nor in

  <https://fqa.9front.org/fqa8.html>

neither in

  <https://wiki.9front.org/unix2plan9>

If there is not a perfect equivalent tool, is it anyway possible to list
some basic information about the current system? For example the OS 
name,
the kernel version, the architecture, the hostname.

Bye!

Rocky
