(equal system-type "gnu/linux")


Since system-type is a symbol, I think its correct use is something like that:

        (string= (symbol-name system-type) "gnu/linux")

I don't know how commutative Elisp is (commutative means that (1+2) is the same as (2+1)), I've mostly seen statements like that:

        (string= "gnu/linux" (symbol-name system-type))
