Hello,

I am trying to port a legacy app from using MKS on Windows to UWin. My
biggest stumbling block (so far) is that there's hard-coded code in the app
that looks at the output of uname and expects it to be MKS's ("Windows_NT").
 Now, I tried switching the output of UWin's uname, but to no avail: putting
a custom uname ahead in the PATH didn't work. Removing /usr/bin/uname didn't
work.  Deleting the uname builtin still didn't work.  Confusingly, I am
getting this (/usr/bin/uname is really a .bat file):
$ whence uname
/usr/bin/uname
$ /usr/bin/uname
Windows_NT
$ uname
UWIN-W7

I also get the same thing if I delete the uname builtin's.  What gives?

I am using the latest UWin release (10/6) on Win7 x64.

Thanks in advance,

Costas
