03:05 Oil_boi_       Hello, is there a way to detect the operating system? Doing require("library") does not work, then dofile(modpath.."/library") where the local $library variable is minetest.get_modpath(), does not work correctly on windows systems, because of the "\". So I was wondering if minetest had a global variable or function for this. I have searched the lua
03:05 Oil_boi_       api and have found nothing
03:12 Oil_boi_       Oop, for some reason I changed the dofile to dofile(path.."/library.lua") and it worked even though it did not before
04:11 DrFrankenstone DIR_DELIM is a keyword in lua that will give you the right slash for the OS
04:12 DrFrankenstone But yes, I just use forward slashes in dofile
04:41 DrFrankenstone [My mistake, DIR_DELIM isn't a lua keyworld, it's provided to lua by Minetest]
09:48 rubenwardy     DrFrankenstone: dir delim is not needed
09:48 rubenwardy     Lua correctly converts / to \ on Windows
09:48 rubenwardy     File a bug for any MT functions which don't
10:06 est31          rubenwardy: btw windows for the most part can deal with / as separator already
10:06 est31          there are places where it can't like in \\?\ paths
10:06 est31          so prefferably you still add \
10:07 est31          but it's not extremely important
11:23 Ingar          windows handling // ? lol
