What is the recommended way to check for platform in cpython? Is it using the sys module or os module? As for the error messages I couldn't think of anything better then what you suggested :). win32: raise ImportError("The crypt module is not supported on Windows") not win32: raise ImportError("The required _crypt module was not built as part of CPython")
