This is a small Python module that determines and returns standardized
names for platforms, where the "standard" is Trent Mick's reasoning :)
from experience building ActivePython on a fairly large number of
platforms.
The driving goal is to provide platform names that are:
- relatively short
- readable (as much as possible making matching the given name to an
actually machine self-explanatory)
- be capable enough to produce all names needed to distinguish all
platform-specific application builds
- generally safe for usage in filenames
- not ugly (e.g. "MSWin32" is ugly)
