I've got a similar function, which I've not got around to testing on Windows
and Linux yet. There are a few differences (like the use of baseconvert),
would be good to get it right?
function folder_Preferences
if the platform is MacOS then
return specialfolderpath(preferences) /
Devin and Derrik,
Thanks very much for sharing your expertise in this area!
I'll likely write global install-time preferences on the Mac to a folder in:
/Library/Application Support/
And use a forking method similar to what Richard and Derrik shared.

I'm just curious, but for those of you who have an Enterprise license,
how do you develop your stacks/standalones for multiple platforms?
Do you keep each platform separate and write the same stack for each
platform itself? Or do you have 1 stack file and use Property Profiles
and platform()

I do roughly the same as the other posters - with the exception that for
certain projects where there is quite a bit of platform specific code I
branch these not within the handler, but out to platform specific handlers
that are then kept in platform specific libraries.
That way the switching
Well thank you Richard, Phil, Jacqueline and David for taking the time
to give your opinion. Your answers were excellent and really helped me
understand how everyone else is using Revolution on multiple platforms.
Some of you did touch on the next question I had. Do you folks prefer

We are just starting to play around with building stacks for the Mac. We
have concentrated exclusively on Windows in the past since that is where
the majority of our user base is. However, I have had many requests for
a Mac version of the volunteer scheduling software we produce.

Hello David,
I ran into the same problem with Preferences and the Registry when I
started porting my software to Mac. Since I fully intended to
eventually port my software to Linux as well, I figured it would be a
