I've proposed Fl_Nix_System_driver following the practivce to name *Nix the Unix+Linux OS collection.

Aternative name suggestions are very welcome.

I don't know a better name, I wouldn't mind if we kept it, although I'm also open for better suggestions.

    I think in light of Evan's comments regarding confusion with NixOS,
    and I myself think "Nix" is not a good mneumonic for Unix/Linux, I'd suggest
    just going with Fl_Unix_System_Driver, since linux is a unix derivative.

    Or if for some reason Fl_Unix_xxx is being avoided, Fl_UnixOS_xxx?

    I just think using Unix is clearer, and linux is unix, just as FreeBSD, IRIX, SunOS etc.
