Sometimes we need to know the user's platform (OS) version and not just which OS it is. This PR adds the
os.release()
to give us that information. Please note that this releases might not be 1:1 connected with the commercial names of the OSes. For macOS, for example, version 12.5, we get a kernel version of 21.6.0.The other option, with more information, would be to print
os.version()
, which provides even more information:I personally think
os.version()
would be better and more informative, but it is not as succinct. What do you think @lidel @SgtPooki?
