Prof Ripley had already spoken with a better solution (Sys.info())...
The problem with system("uname") is that it depends on shell behavior
and also the availability of an external utility - 'uname' - i.e.
although it would work as intended on mac OS X, it would die on windows
due to not having
I use Sys.info()["sysname"].
It returns "Darwin" on a Mac, "Windows" on MS Windows and "Linux" on my Linux
box. Is this sufficient for your needs,
I'm using R-2.6.0alpha on MS Windows and 2.5.0 on Mac and Linux at the moment.

On linux boxes,
version$os and R.version$os
is 'linux-gnu'. I assume that it would be 'darwin-apple' on
Mac's?
