32 or 64

[Ray Andrews <rayandrews@eastlink.ca>]

Gentlemen:


Now that I have both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of various binaries, 
whereas I used to just store them in a /Bin directory which is on my 
path, now, if I'm jumping back and forth between 32 bit Debian and 64 
bit Debian, whereas previously different installs could share the same 
/Bin directory (all being 32 bit previously) now I hafta be able to 
distinguish 32 from 64, so I'm thinking to symlink /Bin to either /Bin32 
or /Bin64 and I'm wondering if there might be a simple way for zsh to 
make that link for me based on knowing if either itself, or the kernel 
is 32 or 64 bit.  I could test the output of 'uname -r' of course, but 
I'd not be surprised if zsh can do it more elegantly and robustly than 
checking for substrings in the kernel name.
