It would be helpful to me if the platform command would return "MacOS" for
regular versions of the MacOS and MacOSX if the system is really running
MacOSX.

I need to execute perl scripts with my application and I need to know
whether to do shell(macperl scriptname) or shell(/user/local/bin/perl
scriptname). I would determine this information from the platform command.

It looks like I can create a profile for macosx, use this profile when I
build the application, then use cRevGeneral[profile] to determine my current
profile. I can do this, but it would seem to make for a cleaner design if
the platform command returned this info.

I also like a previously posted suggestion concerning a property to return
the path to the currently running mainStack/application. This would be
better than each of us having to write our own code, which requires us to
handle the differences in platforms, spaces in directory names etc.
Or maybe I am just missing something in the documentation concerning the
defaultFolder property? I can't determine from the docs whether
defaultFolder does this already if it is not set.
