[MonoDevelop] Application configuration files

[Paddy Joy]

Thanks for all the help/ideas from everyone.

Is there a way I can determine which operating system is being used for 
example:

If (Windos)
{
Use config file "c:\program files\myapp\myapp.conf"
}
else if(Linux)
{
Use "/etc/myapp.conf"
}

Paddy
