Aside from accessing tera-byte files or data structures
the only other reason to have 64-bits is really BIG math =/
Trust me, I fully understand why Operating Systems need to be 64-bits
or 128-bits -- However, why worry about 64-bit User-Land applications?
I say we can worry about t

Can you not just run uname?
$SystInfo = `uname -a`

#include
#include
#include
static char chararray[] = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
static char *myfunc(int i)
{
In a particular script , that is used on multiple unix platforms, I need
to know if my perl script is being run on a 32 bit machine or a 64 bit
machine
Is there any way I can find this portably
