Here's the deal: I have already put together a script that runs on a linux environment 32-bit machine, but it does not work on an IRIX or SUN or Tru64, so I was wondering if there was something universal for all unix machines. I am quite familar with "vmstat", "swap -l", "swapon -s", but I need an executable and not command line code. As to what OS and shells used, I need to be able to cover them all. This function needs to cover a wide range of machines.

I also already have the "Unix in a Nutshell," by O'Reilly. I use it faithfully.

I will check /var/adm/messages..."dmesg." Haven't tried that yet, its worth a shot.

NAME
mkcover - HylaFAX continuation cover page generation command SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/hylafax/bin/mkcover qfile template result DESCRIPTION
bin/mkcover is the command invoked by the facsimile server when a continuation cover page is required for an outbound job that is about to be retried. It generates a single POSTSCRIPT(R) page that is imaged according to the remote capabilities and transmitted as the cover page. The arguments are: qfile the job description file for the outbound job. template the cover page template file, as used by the faxcover(1) program. result the filename where the resultant POSTSCRIPT document should be written. The default mkcover command is a shell script that uses awk(1) to parse the job description file and generate the cover page document. The template file may be optionally compressed with compress(1), pack(1), or gzip(1); the filename suffix is used to decide whether or not the template file contains compressed data. SEE ALSO
