NAME
     uptime - show how long system has been running



SYNOPSIS
     uptime [-M core] [-N system]

DESCRIPTION
     The uptime utility displays the current time, the length of time the sys-

     over the last 1, 5, and 15 minutes.  This is the ``heading'' information
     from w(1).

     The options are as follows:

     -M core    Extract values associated with the name list from the speci-
                fied core instead of the default /dev/kmem.

     -N system  Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the
                default /bsd.
