Comment:

 Replying to [comment:2 zooko]:

 > It would be even cooler to do a "mock out the underlying platform" hack
 like the way you, François, wrote portable unit tests of your unicode
 work. The unit tests could make {{{sys.platform}}} say "FreeBSD10" or
 something and then when iputil.py calls {{{getProcessOutput()}}} the test
 could patch out {{{getProcessOutput()}}} to return a sensible thing that
 looks like the output of "ifconfig -a" on FreeBSD 10.

 Zooko, I knew you'd be saying that ;)

 I'll have a look into that.
