Summary : Map Perl operating system names to generic types
URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Perl-OSType/
License : GPL+ or Artistic
Description : Modules that provide OS-specific behaviors often need to know if
: the current operating system matches a more generic type of
: operating systems. For example, 'linux' is a type of 'Unix'
: operating system and so is 'freebsd'.
:
: This module provides a mapping between an operating system name as
: given by $^O and a more generic type. The initial version is based
: on the OS type mappings provided in Module::Build and
: ExtUtils::CBuilder (thus, Microsoft operating systems are given
: the type 'Windows' rather than 'Win32').
