Platform.{Debian,FreeBSD,MacOSX,Windows98,Windows2000}. {configDirectory,fileSeparator,etc}
I find it harder to think why I would want to know where Windows machines store their configuration files.
Furthermore, the location isn't fixed on Windows: it might be C:\WINDOWS\System (the most usual), or D:\WINDOWS\System (also possible), or <arbitrary-windows-path>\System (because the user can specify anything they like at install time). So config-file location has to be per machine, not per OS. Which suggests not putting it in the module heirarchy... Platform.UK.AC.CAM.CL.GLIA-NT.configDirectory, anyone? :) --KW 8-)
