I don't know of any that are particularly specific to one platform. There's quite a few where we run the command with --version or --help to see if they are the GNU version or not and this is even generalised into _pick_variant in zsh 4.1. In some like _finger, the output of finger -\? is parsed to determine which options are available and in others like _mount, we use a case statement depending on "$OSTYPE". > (i'd like to take a look so that i can patch _find reasonably) _find could certainly be improved in that area. At the moment I think it just completes a set of fairly common options. Oliver This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
