- Thread-topic: how to get OS version with Shell script?
Now are there any restrictions or caveats to either of these methods? I
mean, will one or both of these methods fail in certain versions of OSX. I
seem to recall that 'do shell script' was not available in the very first
incarnations of OSX. Is that true or did I dream it? ;-}
