After the thread about 64-bit machines running Windows I started wondering
about 64-bits machines in general, or, as the much over-used-and-abused
phrase
goes "cross-platform".
In the light of answers to the earlier thread I take it RunRev has no
internal way
of detecting whether a processor is 32 or 64 bit rather in the way
systemVersion
returns details about the OS.
HOWEVER . . . I wonder about something like this:
put the processor
surely that should tell one enough to work out if it is a 32 or 64 bit
system ?????????????
HOWEVER . . . when I do this on my HP Pentium 4 running Ubuntu 10.10 Beta
all I get is
unknown
about as useful as a poke in the face with a sharp stick . . . :(
BUT . . . that is (take note RunRev folks) PROCESSOR is NOT supported
in the
Linux version of RunRev . . . 4.5 . . . cough, cough, cough . . . please?
sincerely, Richmond.
