platform

[David Strubbe]

Hi all,

Can someone explain what the meaning of the possible values of the
'platforms' variable are in a Portfile? Most ports seem to list 'darwin'
but I have seen some that say 'macosx' or even 'puredarwin'. I understand
the meaning of clearly different operating system designations such as
freebsd, linux, sunos, netbsd. But what is the meaning of these similar
'darwin' and 'macosx' labels? The guide is not very illuminating on this
point.

Thanks,
David
