I referred to the following table a bunch of times, it ought to be posted around here just in case it disappears from alma.ch.

Compiled from info in perlport -
Writing portable Perl (version 1.39, last modified 11 February 1999, maintained by
Chris Nandor pudge@pobox.com).
<cite>As of version 5.002, Perl is built with a $^O variable that indicates the
operating system it was built on. This was implemented to help speed up code that would
otherwise have to use Config; and use the value of $Config{'osname'}. Of course, to get
detailed information about the system, looking into %Config is certainly recommended.</cite>

To determine the architecture that you are running on without resorting to
loading all of %Config you can examine the content of the @INC array.Alpha: grep(/VMS_AXP/, @INC)
Vax: grep(/VMS_VAX/, @INC)
See perlport for details. |

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
-
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
-
Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
