Dear programmers.
I'm new in C / C++ programming and I want to write program which output the information of OS (Windows / Unix / Mac - Username - Domain name ...). Dose anyone knows how to do this?

Thanks
Best Regards
ManiH.

The only thing I can think of is using system().

Code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    system("set");
    cout << endl;
    cin.get();
    return(0);
}

I don't need a signature =D
