Hi Gang,
so far I have been programming for Win32 (Cygwin) with Perl...
I need to rsh to other machines such as Linux, Solaris, and HP/UX as well as Win32.
Because Win32 is in the mix, I need to find out what type of OS I am connecting to in order to use the corrrect commands i.e. Registry commands or configuration files.
I need to read the correct information from either and translate things
print $^O
This does it for me.. :)
correctly for OS independent operation.
Can anyone give me the correct incantations to find the OS type? Is there any such thing?
Thanks,
John D.
