they are differently named since I work for GNUstep and use MacOS, and 
that is since 10.0 and a decade or more ago.

It is useful for them to be different, since they might be different and 
I maintain most apps I write with two ports that share common code, but 
different settings.

We should however make our tools "Apple aware". E.g. by using Apple's 
info file if only that is present or, perhaps, at the first time "copy 
it over" or both.
