Any way to test if on unix/linux, mac, windows, etc?

Hi,

I have built scripts for windows only, and now I need a "cross-platform" 
script. Almost everything in the script should work fine to build my java 
projects, but I do have the problem of "paths". I am wondering if there is 
a way to conditionally check and/or set the path based on the platform it 
is being run on?

Thanks.

There's the ${os.name} system property.
