If by "os series" you mean the name of a particular linux distribution, there is no easy way of definitively doing it. You have to write a shell script that checks for and parses various files in /etc to try and determine the name of the distribution.

NAME
noroff - format woven troff documentation SYNOPSIS
noroff [ groff options ] files ... DESCRIPTION
Noroff formats documents that have been woven with noweave -troff. It passes on any options (flags) to groff(1), and treats any remaining non-option arguments as files to be processed. The groff options allow the easy invocation of the gpic, gtbl, and/or geqn, preprocessors. If no options are supplied, it defaults to using the -mm macros, with PostScript output. BUGS
The shell script is probably still not as robust as it needs to be. SEE ALSO
groff(1), noweave(1), nodefs(1), cpif(1) Converting noweb markup to troff markup in the file src/shell/roff.nw in the noweb distribution. VERSION
This man page is from noweb version 2.11b. AUTHOR
Norman Ramsey, Harvard University. Internet address nr@eecs.harvard.edu. Noweb home page at http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~nr/noweb. Noroff was written by Phil Bewig for SoftQuad troff, and enhanced and ported to GNU troff by Aharon Robbins. local 3/28/2001 NOWEB(1)
