Quite likely, naiveness follows... But, aren't things like /proc/cpuinfo ,
/proc/meminfo, /proc/partitions / /proc/diskstats standard, at the very
least across Linux distros? I'm not familiar with BSD or other Unix
flavours, but I would expect these (or their equivalent) to exist in those,
no?
Am I just being naive?
