To use commands, that are special to the OS, it would be useful to know on which OS the app is running.

I found two wasy, but both are not quite simple:

put specialFolderPath("desktop") into field "fFolder"

than check if fFolder is empty or not to know which OS is running.

put the machine into field "fMachine"

on Mac 10.7.3 I get "unknown" - nice bug -

Is there a command simple to use?

Also "the platform" if you need to know the general type of OS.
