Probably not yet, but I decided not to let that get in the way :-)

Oh, ok. I was working off of what I was seeing on a Sun, but
I did not look closely enough. Interesting that Sun would have a /bin/i386
and a /bin/iAPX286; seems like it should go one way or another.
The basic gist of my adapted "arch" script was: find some file unique
to a machine and do some guesswork. Hope to see some additions to it so that
we can all benefit.
