NeXTanswers' hardware.422 and whatever you can glean from the
#include files (and, of course, any examples you just happen to
find lying around, such as

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/table.h>
main() {
	struct tbl_loadavg avg;

	(void)table(TBL_LOADAVG, 0, (caddr_t)&avg, 1, sizeof avg);
	(void)printf("load average:%5.2f,%5.2f,%5.2f\n",
		(double)avg.tl_avenrun[0]/(double)avg.tl_lscale,
		(double)avg.tl_avenrun[1]/(double)avg.tl_lscale,
		(double)avg.tl_avenrun[2]/(double)avg.tl_lscale);
	exit(0);
}

which I posted a few weeks ago, or the "locate the loginwindow
process" code in iwf.)
