    NAME
         whoami - display effective user id

    SYNOPSIS
         whoami

    DESCRIPTION
         The whoami utility has been obsoleted by the id(1) utility,
         and is equivalent to ``id -un''.  The command ``id -p'' is
         suggested for normal interactive use.

         The whoami utility displays your effective user ID as a
         name.

         The whoami utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error
         occurs.
