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.

noroff
NOWEB(1) General Commands Manual NOWEB(1)
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.
