If you're only using system() for rm/del, why not simply use the remove()
C call?
	remove("file");
However, GCC will always #define unix when compiling under Linux/etc.*, so
you could use
#ifdef unix
	system("unix-centric command");
#else
	system("DOS-centric command");
#endif



* You can see what macros are predefined using the -dM argument to cpp, ie:
(21:09)root AT narnia:~# echo | cpp -dM
#define linux 1
#define __ELF__ 1
#define unix 1
(21:09)root AT narnia:~#
