Description

Output follows. When trying to add win8, should inform the platform is not available on Mac, not that the platform is unrecognized. For wp7/wp8, errors don't make sense.

Ulothrix:hello sierra$ cordova platform add win8
[Error: Platform "win8" not recognized as core cordova platform.]
Ulothrix:hello sierra$ cordova platform add wp7
