Consider reorg of scripts by function, so instead of having separate scripts per OS, inline the bits needed to keep equivalent functions co-located. If there's a large difference for a particular platform, that can be extracted to a separate file and executed / sourced from the main one following the same approach.

e.g.

case "$(uname -s)" in

Darwin)
	# echo 'Mac OS X'
	alias ls='ls -G'
	;;

Linux)
	alias ls='ls --color=auto'
	;;

CYGWIN* | MINGW32* | MSYS* | MINGW*)
	# echo 'MS Windows'
	;;
*)
	# echo 'Other OS'
	;;
esac
