Though, I think it might be easier to have an icon next to the search hits, rather than segregating by platform--- since segregating/sectioning runs counter to relevance ranking.
While OTOH, this approach might rank low-level POSIX/Windoze libraries higher than cross-platform wrappers, which arguably isn't the best way to promote platform-independence. I really do think that "show N more results from platform Foo" and "show N more platform-specific results" is the way to go: clicking them would repeat the search with "(+platform | +all) -cross-platform" tags, which has the benefit of implicitly documenting how to do specific searches: No documentation needed, no GUI if you don't care. -- (c) this sig last receiving data processing entity.
