This one will not work.

>>> 'windows' in System.getProperty('os.name').lower() Traceback (innermost last): File "", line 1, in ? TypeError: string member test needs char left operand >>>

Interesting, which version of Jython were you using?

You may have to do something like System.getProperty('os.name').lower().find('windows').

That didn't work for me. I assume the following works for you:

    System.getProperty('os.name').lower().startswith('windows')
