Relevance: Get a list of properties for a type

properties of type "operating system"

Output:

name of <operating system>: string
release of <operating system>: string
version of <operating system>: version
build of <operating system>: string
architecture of <operating system>: string
machine of <operating system>: string
windows of <operating system>: boolean
unix of <operating system>: boolean
mac of <operating system>: boolean
embedded of <operating system>: boolean
major version of <operating system>: integer

build number low of <operating system>: integer
platform id of <operating system>: integer
csd version of <operating system>: string

performance counter of <operating system>: integer
ia64 of <operating system>: boolean
x64 of <operating system>: boolean

Relevance: Using information for a type

    x64 of operating system

Output:

    True

This is because x64 is within the evaluated information of the type "operating system", specifically "architecture".

As seen here:

    architecture of operating system

Output:

    x86_64

    Evaluation time: 0.040 ms

Slightly more complicated example:

build number low of operating system < 9300 and architecture of operating system contains "x86" or architecture of operating system contains "64"

Mixed with light amount of action script:

if{build number low of operating system < 9300} 
wait cmd.exe /c mkdir "C:\Users\ewoelfel\Desktop\Tivoli"
endif
