DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
     _H_o_s_t_n_a_m_e prints the name of the current host.  The super-
     user can set the hostname by supplying an argument; this is
     usually done in the network initialization script
     /_e_t_c/_n_e_t_s_t_a_r_t, normally run at boot time.	The -_s option
     trims any domain information from the printed name.
