Currently I can get the currently-logged-in-userid via 
getpass.getuser() which would yield something like "tchase".

Is there a cross-platform way to get the full username (such as 
from the GECOS field of /etc/passed or via something like 
NetUserGetInfo on Win32 so I'd get "Tim Chase" instead?

Thanks,

-tkc
