How to find out the default gateway on Mac OSX?

I know how to do this on Windows and Linux. At one point, I knew how to
do it on Solaris, and I suspect the Mac way is the Solaris way, since
both seem to be pretty much unadorned BSD-based.

It *should* just be "route", or maybe "route print", but it is not...

FWIW: Darwin's networking and shell userland is based on FreeBSD, not much
of the kernel is though.

Thats only windows.

$ netstat -nr | fgrep default
default 10.11.12.254 UGSc 83 12 en0
default fe80::209:fff:fe88:fb1e%en0 UGSc en0

And Linux:

sh-3.1# route | grep default
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
sh-3.1#

Thanks. Much appreciated.

I was almost there, from "man route", but the documentation of the route
