I hope this isn't an old question, but is there any software which can identify what version of UN*X it is running? And maybe even tell the deficiency from the "standard" (e.g., V7, System III, V, BSD4.1 or BSD4.2)? Any information or reference is appreciated! -- -------- Steve Cheng UUCP: {umcp-cs!eneevax || seismo!rlgvax!elsie}!imsvax!cheng
