=head1 NAME

B<uptime> - show how long the system has been up

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<uptime> [ -h ]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The B<uptime> command prints the current time, the length of time the 
+system has been up, and the number of users logged on.

=head2 OPTIONS

The following options are supported:

=over 4

=item -h

Display syntax.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLE

Below is an example of the output B<uptime> provides:

C:\> uptime
 10:10    up 0 days, 18:40,  2 users

=head1 ENVIRONMENT

The working of B<uptime> is not influenced by any environment variable
+s.

=head1 BUGS

B<uptime> returns an approximate uptime.  It uses the Win32::GetTickCo
+unt() function, an imprecise mechanism.  A better way to derrive the 
+last boot is to query the event log for the most recent 6005 or 6009 
+event and grab that time.  If log files are large, this can be time c
+onsuming.

If you need this kind of resolution, use B<who -b>.

B<printf> does not seem to want to pad numbers with '0's.

=head1 STANDARDS

It does not make sense to talk about standards in a B<uptime> manual p
+age.
