platform.uname()

platform.uname()

Fairly portable uname interface. Returns a namedtuple() containing six attributes: system, node, release, version, machine, and processor.

Note that this adds a sixth attribute (processor) not present in the os.uname() result. Also, the attribute names are different for the first two attributes; os.uname() names them sysname and nodename.

Entries which cannot be determined are set to ''.
