NAME

Raku port of Perl's Sys::Hostname module

SYNOPSIS

use Sys::Hostname;
$host = hostname;

DESCRIPTION

This module tries to mimic the behaviour of Perl's Sys::Hostname module as closely as possible in the Raku Programming Language.

Obtain the system hostname as Raku sees it.

All NULs, returns, and newlines are removed from the result.

PORTING CAVEATS

At present, the behaviour of the built-in gethostname sub is used. Any bugs in its behaviour should be fixed there.
