Re: loading a perl module based on the os on which script is running

If you look inside File::Spec (shipped with Perl), you will find this code:

package File::Spec;

use strict;
use vars qw(@ISA $VERSION);

$VERSION = 0.82 ;

my %module = (MacOS   => 'Mac',
              MSWin32 => 'Win32',
              os2     => 'OS2',
              VMS     => 'VMS');

my $module = $module{$^O} || 'Unix';
require "File/Spec/$module.pm";
@ISA = ("File::Spec::$module");

1;
__END__

Is this what you need?
