Well actually I only have some --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (when mac (do something)) (when linux (do something else)) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- A library with the os-specific stuff might be better, but now I have everything in the org-file divided by "chapter" (windows, buffers, frames etc). Doing "system" libraries like that would break a little bit this model.
