==DESCRIPTION==
 
When you call a method in this class, it is sent to the appropriate EPrints::Platform::xxx module. Usually this is  EPrints::Platform::Unix
 
 
 
Which module is used is configured by the {platform} setting in SystemSettings.pm
 
 
 
All file and directory names are absolute and joined by the Unix file separator character '/'.
