 CPUTYPE()
 Determines what type of microprocessor in use
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax

     CPUTYPE() --> nCPUType

 Returns

     CPUTYPE() returns a numeric code that identifies the microprocessor in
     use.

 Description

     This function determines which microprocessor is in use.  For instance,
     a PC may use a Vnn microprocessor or an AT may use a 386 microprocessor.
     The microprocessors have the following codes:

     1       CPU_8086          8086
     2       CPU_V20           V20
     3       CPU_V30           V30
     4       CPU_80188         80188
     5       CPU_80186         80186
     6       CPU_80286         80286
     7       CPU_80386         80386
     8       CPU_80486         80486
     ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Example

     What type of microprocessor is on the AT?

     IF CPUTYPE() == CPU_80386
        ? "A 386 ..."
     ENDIF
