Cannot be run on another platform than OS X

[pepri]

The dependency macos-alias requires platform OS X (os: darwin). This means I cannot install ds-store package in my environment.

I would like to create .DS_Store file in a build script that is run on Linux build server. Is the platform limitation really required? It would be nice if this was platform independent.

Yeah, I would love to have it platform independent. Patches welcome!

Yep, I am looking into it. I will have OS X later today available, so I will make a patch. The patch will be actually made to macos-alias.

Whatever happened to this? I am using Linux and badly need to create a DS_Store file without requiring a Mac. If node-ds-store could achieve this then it would solve a problem many other projects have been unable to conquer. You'll be heroes!

Yeah, I did not finish it completely. Changed the job, lost the source code and I do not have a use case for this anymore. Sorry for the bad news.
