- Not quite true. Powerplant is a Mac-only framework. If you
- do Win development, you use the MFC. About the only cross
- platform things I know of are 1. OpenDoc under any compliant
- compiler (I believe that there are PC options), Microsoft
- Visual C++, which in theory will make Mac applciations as well,
- and will let you use the MFC as a cross platform toolkit, or
- one of the big boys, like Galaxy, Neuron Data, or one of the
- other large, powerful GUI toolkits.
-
- I would look into OpenDoc, but people have very different needs.
